    Garry Sobers has just hit one through the covers for four.

  2. Eng 149-9

    I shouldn't have doubted him. Broad adds four through the covers. England have at least passed their first-innings effort.

  3. Sir Alastair Cook
    Former England captain on The Cricket Social

    What amazes me about Mo is he's not a massive gym person - he's quite slight - but he hits it miles. He hits it just as far as Jos Buttler.

  4. Phil Tufnell
    Former England spinner on The Cricket Social

    They were a couple of great shots from Moeen - hitting it out of that rough and get clean connection...

  5. Moeen has 28 from 12 balls. It's the second-highest score of England's innings. Stuart Broad is on strike now though...

    India need one wicket to win

    Three in a row for Moeen! What a star. Well in.

    Just another 337 runs needed for Moeen to do this...

  8. 6 runs

    Eng 139-9

    And again! Virat Kohli must be wondering why Moeen didn't do this when he was playing under him in the IPL.

  9. 6 runs

    Eng 133-9

    Moeen Ali has hit this absolutely miles. The biggest six of the match.

  10. Simon Mann
    BBC Test Match Special commentator on The Cricket Social

    Axar has five wickets on debut. He is just doing his job on this pitch.

  11. Sir Alastair Cook
    Former England captain on The Cricket Social

    Why is Ashwin not bowling?

  12. That wicket means Ravichandran Ashwin cannot get his 10-fer. Axar Patel has 5-41 on debut in this second innings.

    WICKET

    Stone lbw b Axar 9 (Eng 126-9)

    It's actual only just OK for India on impact. Far less of the ball is in line with off stump than the controversial one to Root yesterday. After that it's clearly hitting the stumps.

    Kohli and Axar are laughing and joking in the middle.

  14. Olly Stone has not hit it.

  15. England review

    Stone gone? It looks like it. The only thing that can save him is height. He reviews the lbw decision.

    I've missed seeing Moeen smack it :)

  17. Eng 126-8

    Moeen gets another boundary at the end of the over - a four on the cut. No-one will begrudge Moeen a few runs here.

    Kohli has not brought Ashwin back on which is harsh with him two short of 10.

  18. Simon Mann
    BBC Test Match Special commentator on The Cricket Social

    Moeen has decided to take it on a bit - and he very nearly dented the sponsor's car.

    Crepe Guardiola might share his recipe for success.

    Pete, Devon

  20. 6 runs

    Eng 122-8

    Well he may as well. Moeen is going to try and get some payback for the sixes off his bowling.
