A batter who can sweep and reverse sweep really gets into your head as a bowler. It puts the bowler off because you have got to put a fielder out at deep cover-ish for the reverse, which deprives you of a close fielder or an attacking one.

But then you start scratching your head because if they're good at it, it is very hard to stop them from doing it. You can look to bowl it very full, and bring lbw into play.

Ben Duckett said before the series that he would use it as his forward defence - and it looks like all of England's line-up has listened! And India's brilliant spinners, Ashwin and Jadeja, have looked baffled by it.

Jasprit Bumrah is coming back for a final burst as the sun dips behind the stand.

He was brilliant earlier.

They're showing Ollie Pope's wagon wheel on TV but it makes very little sense given he's played half of this innings as a left-hander with all of those switch hits.

It is one of the best innings I have seen by an overseas batter in India. I can't think of many as good as this, perhaps only Steve Smith in Pune in 2016-17.

What makes it so special is his attacking intent, the way he has attacked the India bowlers on a very bowler-friendly surface.

For anyone who hasn't seen his innings yet, I can only say that you have to find some highlights.

It has been an enthralling day. England started well with the ball and that gave them the momentum going forward.

It's been a great confidence-boosting innings for Pope. He was skittish in the first innings but here, is footwork has been assured and confident.

And now, England have a sniff. Another 100 runs or so and you just never know what could happen!

England lead by 100.

Whatever happens tomorrow they're going to ask the question of India.

The England fans break into their latest rendition of the Great Escape. It's not on yet. Not yet...

Ollie Pope is playing the innings of his life here.

He has played absolutely brilliantly.

Well what do we call this?!

I reckon it's the reverse Dil Scoop from Ollie Pope. He's turned his hands and lifted Ravindra Jadeja up over his own head for four.

Ollie Robinson is sat on a plastic chair in a yellow bib down there and, with one foot up on the other knee, he politely applauds like a man watching over people.

Ben Stokes is smiling in the England dressing room even though it looks like he's going to have to cancel tomorrow's tee time.

We're all going to have to set our alarms again tomorrow.

Ravindra Jadeja is furious with himself after first bowling a no-ball and then giving Rehan Ahmed a gift outside off stump which lets the teenager off the mark with a boundary.

There are nine overs left today.

England lead by 85 as Rehan Ahmed emerges.

I tell you what, there are some frustrated faces among the India players now. Ollie Pope gets fortunate again as he gloves a reverse sweep up over Rohit Sharma at slip.

Pope's going to live the reverse sweep and may well die by it.

There's a quick handshake between Ollie Pope and Ben Foakes but more celebration among the England fans in the stands as the partnership total nudges beyond 100.

Those supporters are on their feet applauding.

A reminder that if you've got a question about today's play, you can send it our way in the usual places to get their thoughts.

Now Pope rubs it in by driving Jadeja's next ball for four off the back foot to move to 114.

That over from India felt very Englandy.

This partnership is worth 98.

Pope dropped on 110published at 63.4 overs

63.4 overs

Down! That's a sitter.

Ollie Pope plays that reverse sweep again and it goes in the air to Axar Patel at backward point but he puts it down above his head.
