5.44pm Wow. What an extraordinary session, what an extraordinary day for India. It began with Akash Deep's heroic half-century as a nightwatcher, continued through Yashasvi Jaiswal's fourth century against his favourite opponents, and it concluded with those now-familiar foes, Jadeja and Washington Sundar, piling in with a pair of half-centuries to drag the target to a very imposing 373. Sundar's late onslaught was simply magnificent. England, a bowler down with Woakes injured, stuck to their task, but it's over to their batters now. Crawley and Duckett have a very interesting hour and a bit coming up... I don't think there's any doubt about how they take it on, but how successful will they be? Over to Abhimanyu to find out!

Sumesh : "An hour of England batting will decide the result " One way or another, yes, it has that potential!

AmnasSamad: "Andrew, how many overs are possible today if we think realistically?" We can play on until 7, so 15 maybe?

Vignesh: "19 wickets for Tongue in just 3 Test matches. A healthy dose of Rabbit Pie" Not sure Sundar qualifies on that count, but yes...

Dev: "Bazballers are getting WashBalled. " Better than getting ballwashed, I presume

Tongue to Washington Sundar, OUT, full, swinging into the pads, flicked so high in the air, and somehow, taken in the deep! Crawley and Pope at deep midwicket, both tracking round, eyes on the prize ... Crawley, the taller man, gets his hands up higher, and emerges from the tangle with the ball in his hand, seconds before they collide! No damage done, thankfully. Tongue also emerges from some tangled figures with a five-for!

Atkinson to Washington Sundar, 1 run, another wipe through the line! It's an ideal mishit from Sundar, a huge hack through the line but miscued, and plops in the deep to allow the single. It's as if he planned it!

The new ball has been maimed in the process! A huge chunk has been taken out of it... and it will have to be replaced

Atkinson to Washington Sundar, SIX, absolutely battered over deep midwicket! Full length, magnificent levers, crunched hard and true, clean out of the screws, high into the scoreboard! Up comes his fifty... in a ballistic 39 balls!

Atkinson to Washington Sundar, FOUR, short, blazed magnificently across the line to deep midwicket! Sundar is playing the cameo of a lifetime! No.9 with a centurion's poise!

Mrs.Miller: "Mr.Miller what is Beefeater Distillery ????" If you knew my wife, you'd know this is the unlikeliest comment in history...
