LIVE UPDATES:

# Ashwin to Ollie Pope, out Bowled!! Ollie Pope b Ashwin 1(12)

# Axar to Zak Crawley, out Lbw!! Axar Patel, take a bow sir! He was toying with Crawley getting one to slide and the other to turn and bounce. Confused him so nicely for the last few deliveries.

# Axar to Bairstow, out Lbw!! Aired through the arm ball, Bairstow prodded forward and missed the line. He thought he was forward enough and didn’t hesitate to take review. The ball was arrowed in straight and three reds is what the ball tracker suggested.

# Ashwin to Root, out Lbw!! What a blow this is for England. Root pays the price for hanging back to a fairly full ball. As soon as the ball hit the pad, he was shaking his head in disappointment for misjudging the length on that delivery.

# Ishant to Sibley, out Caught by Rohit!! Gone! Ishant celebrates his 100th outing in Tests with a lovely delivery outside off. Forced the batter to dangle his bat outside off and Sibley edged it for the man at second slip to take it. Sibley c Rohit b Ishant 0(7)
