2.30pm Anderson leads the team off the ground, raising he ball aloft as he does so. A better day for England as India began at 278 for 3. England will take the 86 for 7 today, but have India got enough already? You'd think so in most English conditions these days, but we will know more about the pitch only when both sides have bowled on it. Can India make better use of the conditions? Stick around with Alan Gardner after the innings break to find out

Wood to Jadeja, OUT, Jadeja doesn't have much trust in Siraj. He goes for the big one first up, and top-edges the pull for an easy catch for Anderson at mid-on. Wood ends up with a two-for. Both the left-hand batters fall to him

RA Jadeja c Anderson b Wood 40 (162m 120b 3x4 0x6) SR: 33.33

Wood comes back. He has Jadeja on strike. His job: keep Jadeja down at this end for the next over. Just one wide slip catching. Four men saving one. All others on the fence

Anderson to Bumrah, OUT, that's the five-for for Anderson. Too good for Bumrah, gets the swing from just short of a length, Bumrah pushes at it in defence, is squared up, and edges it through for another duck

Anderson to Bumrah, no run, looks for the full lbw ball, but Bumrah's bat is down in time to keep it out

Anderson to Bumrah, no run, beaten on the outside edge as this holds its line outside off. Bumrah is stretching forward and defending

Anderson to Bumrah, no run, missed run-out now. Bumrah defends an inswinger to cover, Jadeja wants a single, is sent back, but there is no direct hit

Anderson to Jadeja, 1 run, dropped. England are a shambles in the field. Anderson is grumpy. This is a five-for gone away. To be fair, Burns has been excellent at gully, saving boundaries, but now that Jadeja has guided one straight at him, he spills it

Anderson to Jadeja, no run, down the leg side, Jadeja looks for the glance, but can't get a touch

Robinson to Bumrah, no run, outside edge. Has this seamed away because Bumrah seems to be looking to play leg as this is swinging in. Ends up edging it, but is also squared up and his back pad saves it from going it to the cordon

Robinson to Bumrah, no run, looks for the full inswinger, Bumrah defends it well
