England v India 1st Test

[Vino blanco]

India 78/5, getting interesting.

[Mondsley]

All to play for now. If we get Kohli early I think we'll win. And apologies to Vintage Claret (post 60). Jimmy does indeed hold the record for most "Not outs" in test cricket!! I need to get out more.

[CleggHall]

A performing spinner would be useful, Root has little faith in Rashid and Moeen would have been a better bet. My money is on Kohli and India but I hope I am proved wrong.

We need to get Kohli; I can't imagine a scenario where he is unbeaten but on the losing side. He is too good at controlling the situation and rotating strike to allow that to happen. He also scores quickly as well so the 90-odd needed to win can tick down quickly.

[Spijed]

Root has little faith in Rashid

Seems all the more strange to pick him in the first place!

[tiger76]

That partnership at the end gives India the edge,but in this test wickets have fallen in clusters,hope that's the case tomorrow morning,And any catches have too be snaffled,Kohli is the key if he stays in for the first hour India will keep the scoreboard ticking.

One positive is young Curran showing Ben Stokes what a true all-rounder should contribute to the team.

[CleggHall]

Jimmy gets one, 4 more to go, a great session in progress this morning.

[tiger76]

Could do with a wicket soon only 60 needed now,another 50 for Kohli.

[Devils_Advocate]

Game on now

[mdd2]

Wow 8 down now. Ben Stokes turning this our way, fingers crossed.

[tiger76]

Huge wicket Stokes hasn't done much with the bat,but that could be a game changer.

[Stevie2112]

This has been a brilliant test match so far!

[tiger76]

Another for Stokes England must be favourites now,the way this game has ebbed and flowed,can't count any chickens yet.

[karatekid]

Stokes thinks he's Freddie

[mdd2]

154-9 Rashid gets a wicket

[tiger76]

If England go on to win this game,Curran's knock yesterday afternoon,and his stands with Rashid and Broad will have been pivotal in giving England just enough to defend.

[Stevie2112]

Brilliant win from England

[Burnley Ace]

Boom - mic drop!!!

[tiger76]

Great win from England,still doesn't mask some issues though.Might shut Kohli up for a few days.
