2.57pm That is a huge lead of 132 for India. Their bowling attack had more intensity and depth for when the ball went soft and batting became easier. And that proves to be the difference between the two teams' scores. Now England need to bowl out of their skins to give their batters any chance of saving this series. After this innings break, you will be with Andrew Miller

Mohammed Siraj to Potts, OUT, Iyer is claiming the catch but Potts is not walking. Soft signal is out. Over to the third umpire. And it seems to have bounced in front of him. Potts is making room, Siraj follows him, the edge is taken, but it dies in front of Iyer who is diving sideways for it. In the end the soft signal works for India. There;'s no way this is going to be given out if the soft signal is not out. This is a little controversial. I am not sure this ball didn't touch the turf. The soft signal is all the difference here

Mohammed Siraj to Potts, SIX, that is a sumptuous slog. Clears the front leg, gets under a length ball and sends it flying over midwicket for six

Mohammed Siraj to Potts, FOUR, Potts will take these. Siraj bowls a bouncer, he looks to hook this to fine leg, but gets a top edge much finer than where he intends to send it
