    Massive wicket.

    Every run is vital here.. If India get 200 in front I’d make them favourite

    As is every wicket - 3 to go - all results still very much possible

    They're going to slog their way to a 200+ lead. All depends on how our batting do later.

    Shame there's no Wood to try and blitz through the tail with his pace.

    BBC website: "Robinson Removes Pant".

    Brilliant.

    Wonder if same headline writer will use the line "(insert name of bowler) has got Wood".

    My coit is already on.

    Wood pecks at tail.

    What's the betting after this test they announce Wood needs shoulder surgery and will be out until next year?!?

    Can't be sensible to be steaming in like this when he looks in pain

    For some reason, England do seem to get rattled by tail enders who start slogging. Full and straight with the odd short ball and odd yorker would do the job.

    Setting a field that doesn't allow milking singles like they are would help

    Started well but we've lost the plot now. Hopefully Moeen can finish this off for us.

    Shocking tactics this morning. Orthodox bowling and fields would’ve meant they needed some luck to stay in. As it was they were able to swing freely with the fielders all over the place.

    Think a win is already beyond England

    Can't understand why Jimmy isn't back on.

    This game is pretty much gone now. Run rate is too high for a 4th innings at Lord's. We'll be struggling to draw before long.

    Can't believe what I've seen this morning. He's set fields as is they're bowling to Tendulkar in his prime. Absolutely shocking captaincy.
