    I've been very supportive of England's tactics all through this test match, but this is bonkers! Declare Joe ffs.

    Another side effect of this is that an opposition bowler has a 5 fer that should never have happened.

    I really hope we don't run out of time with them 9 down after prolonging the innings by about an hour...

    Half the team gone for under 50 runs. Let's hope India bat the same way as they will still fancy their chances.

    So when England win by 2 runs tomorrow you'll all be praising Joe ;) (said with tongue firmly in cheek before I get slagged off):)
    Got to say the cricket is a welcome diversion to all the doom and gloom at the moment

    They would have to go at a decent rate to get 420, you never know but its highly unlikely.

    2 wickets before close of play and I'll be happy.

    Yeah, nip a couple out tonight and they’ll be twitchy.

    Can’t see them going for the runs to be honest, the new ball will grip and turn

    No chance of 420 on a day 5 pitch in India
