[HantsSeagull]

sorry but is this not on sky? where can i watch?

I can't believe they went to Ultra Edge when that clearly hit the forearm well above bat and glove.

India blow their third and final review of the first innings.
England 416-4
Root 184 not out

Current odds: Draw is favourite at 4/6, England to win are 6/4, and India to win are 14/1.

It's on Channel 4.

Looking forward to Archer's innings, could be a few 4's and 6's to push England past 600?

I can't believe they went to Ultra Edge when that clearly hit the forearm well above bat and glove.

Don't forget that if it had brushed the elasticated wrist piece of the glove it would have been out. A long way from the main part of the glove but not the wrist.
It probably touched his his arm about an inch above the glove wrist band. Close but not close enough, especially when you only have one review remaining. A sign of India's desperation.

I've only been watching for the last 10 minutes or so, but I can't begin to imagine how little I'd be up for running quick singles in Root's position right now.

Joe Root

SIX to make his double hundred

 

[Grizz]

What a way to get your double hundred. Take a well deserved bow Joe

200 up with a six! Well played Skipper...

 

[Change at Barnham]

Root goes to a double century with a straight driven six.

Roooooot!!

440/4

Wtf! Where did that 6 come from? Pretty un-Rootish given the context of his innings. Thank the stars he wasn't stumped in sight of an easily nudged and nurdled double ton.....

Still well done, I remember seeing the shot with which Boycott brought up his hundreth hundred in his hundreth Test Match... Both Yorkshiremen, both slightly unusual shots..

Dare I say that Root has a highest score of 254 and he doesn't appear in any trouble at the present?

You can say that. I will add that I don't see a declaration coming any time today, I think we will be looking to bat once only.

454-4 at Tea, 600 plus must be the target?

 

[Mackenzie]

Bat until Butler is out, keep the bowlers fresh.

 

[Sid in the Sharknado]

I'd be a little surprised if we declared before lunch tomorrow. Ultimately either this pitch breaks up and bowling India out twice in 2 and a half days becomes relatively easy, or it doesn't and the game's a guaranteed draw.

Root gets his double ton with a six. Class.

The draw is still the favourite result at 8/13.
England are 13/8 and India 14/1.
