Brilliant from Foakes and Leach.
What a start. |  |

Sibley 50 n.o. and Burns 400 n.o. win by 10 wickets? |
We would be 32 short so the test would be a draw. |  | | |

Not with extras it wouldn't have been.
The draw is only possible with loss of play.
The win for England is not realistically possible either.
The only question is how much of tomorrow's play will be needed for them to win. I can't see it going to a fifth day. |  |

The case against sending out a night watchman just there. |  |

I guess the argument is that Root could have been out off his first ball there instead. I have just stopped watching so I have no idea whether it was a good delivery or a poor shot - only cricinfo's description that it turned and broke the surface. | |

We are going to lose! We need to take some positives so score from Lawrence ( though he’s not a test match 3 and he’s never batted there for Essex either! ) a score from Pope just to empathise how good he is.
We’ve already seen that we’ve got another good quick in Stone and I’d pick him again for the next test, could be fun watching him and Joffra coming in quick! |  | | |

There's a time and a place for a night watchman, and this is not it. |  |

Not sure how Root got away with that one. | |

That looked absolutely plum to me. | |

That was appalling umpiring. | |

Was it? Cricinfo says no edge and Umpire's call on hitting the wickets so would suggest the Umpire gave the benefit of doubt correctly to the batsman. | |

It was umpire's call on whether impact was in line, it was hitting the stumps. It was umpire's call by about 1mm and to the naked eye he was hit bang in front of off stump. | |

Throwing Leach in there, likely to be facing a fair amount of balls against Ashwin was a mistake, of course Patel then got him with a nasty delivery but it always looked a poor choice. |  |

To the naked eye from a TV screen. Clearly the umpire felt it didn't look right but, from your description, I can understand that any fielding side would feel very hard done by. | |

It's all irrelevant though, isn't it? England were never going to come close to recovering from the huge first innings deficit or bat out time on a turning pitch against India. |  |

It looked plum, of course that's watching it on TV rather than standing where the umpire is, but I can understand why India weren't happy. I'd be pretty miffed if that was given not out when we were fielding. | |

Yes, but hardly an "appalling" umpiring decision. | |
