    And a lovely gesture by Joe Root to mark his 100.

    I think you have to remember both sides are trying to win. Both make mistakes, that's the nature of Test match cricket. You won't win every session but you have to keep going and battle back.
    Been a brilliant series played with a real edge to it.

    Good knock by Bethell. It's not always about runs. After losing Brook we needed someone to hold up an end for Root and he used up five overs of balls.

    We don't want to have to bring Woakes out to do the same job.

    The series wasn't going to just end without a bit more drama.

    I’d make India favourites now. Effectively 7 down….

    Woakes in his whites. I'd bring him in next if we lose another. I would want him in well before last wicket.

    Don’t agree. He handed the initiative to India by hogging the strike and making batting look difficult and gave their bowlers hope again

    I think we'll do it. Woakes can come out to the middle can't he?

    Imagine so but not sure what he’ll be capable of. Still need 35 and it’s hard to see where they’re coming from. Barely scored a run in last half hour.
