3.55pm Well hello again. Now here's a dilemma for England. They've come into the match with one frontline seamer, and found a surface that offered decent carry and movement for the new ball. How do they partner James Anderson? Ben Stokes, remember, has a dicky tummy, and has barely bowled all tour. Jack Leach to open up in a radical seam-spin combo? Where's Ian Bell when you need him (apart from in our studio hot-seat, of course...)

shishank dahiya: "Still cant believe Woakes didnt get a game this series. He can bat too if England are so worried about long tail " He's back home in England, so that ruled that out. Still, England had Foakes at 8 and Bess at 9, and still couldn't piece together a serviceable total, so not convinced he would have been the magic bullet.

Tahir: "Indian pitches are tailor made for win the toss, bat first, put on the scoreboard, etc. So, England have used the strip when it was bit batting friendly. Now the dust bowl will trouble India." Well, there is that... England would have killed for 205 last week ...

3.50pm Eight wickets for spin as England are all out for 205 after batting first. Axar could not get a fourth-straight five-for in an innings, but he led the way with the wickets. Siraj got the big Bairstow, Root wickets. Sundar removed the only half-centurion Stokes. And Ashwin got picked the others off.

Another disappointing batting performance from England, on a surface that was doing much less than what they (or atleast people) were worried about. When we're back in around ten mins, Andrew Miller will be on the hot seat with Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill taking strike.

Philip M McCart: "Wait - what - Archer WOULD HAVE played? Then why not Stone, Woakes, a seamer in general? Makes no sense :("
