12.35 pm So England lead by 311 runs. There are about 15 minutes left in this session, and five sessions to go after this one. Can India score 450-500? They'll need about that much to try and escape Old Trafford with a draw.
Abid: "What should be Indian batters approach? I suggest complete the deficit by today's end of the play. Score 250 in the first session at good run rate and then ask England to bat." A tall ask, even when playing stick cricket.

Washington Sundar to Carse, no run, tries to smash the ball down the ground again, he gets a bottom edge into the pitch and then has the presence of mind to use the bat like a hockey stick and prevent the ball from hitting the stumps ... thinks about running after that but then stops
