Pity World Snooker sent the winner's cheque to the wrong guy!

288-5 at COP. The Indian spinners (who are very good) are already having success. Could England regret not picking 3 spinners for this match (or not having the right ones in the squad)?

Moeen and Jennings have gone, England 246 for 4. India putting on the pressure now.

Bought some of this yesterday, been trying to source it for ages after having it on draft in the Guildford arms nearly two years ago. Lovely stuff, very nice aftertaste. I also had a nice pint of "silkie stout" in the Guildford arms yesterday. Very drinkable, Although at £3.90 a pint, one was enough.
Had a Silkie Stout recently. Very pleasant. However, the best dark beer I've had of late is Fallen Chew Chew.

I thought it was OK. Had a couple of genuine laughs in it which is more than most recent ones. But I know other people thought it was very good.

I've come to this pretty late. I started watching season one last Thursday and thought it was incredible. Hooked from the start. When I mentioned on Facebook how good it was, most people told me season two was better. That was hard to believe at the time, but they were absolutely right. I'd binged up to the penultimate episode last night, ready for the finale tonight and it didn't disappoint. The one thing that sat just a little uncomfortably was the remarkable good fortune to bump into Waiter Exposition, but I forgive it that slight mis-step in an instant. Great writing. Perfect acting. Remarkable stuff.
Didn't really bother me. It seemed like a small place and they could have asked around with the same result.
An excellent series.

Jennings has been called up. Should be interesting assuming he plays. Liam Dawson also brought in.

Well done India. England were up against it from when they didn't make a big enough total in their first innings.

England trail by 134 runs after eventually wrapping up India's first innings. Obviously the odds are very much in India's favour. Hameed doesn't open due to injury but it seems he'll bat later on.

Batty might have a bigger role to play when it comes to India's second innings.

India close on 271-6, 12 runs behind. They're in the better position at the moment....

Sadly, former Rangers player Davie Provan has passed away. RIP.

Stokes stumped, Bairstow's got 50, Buttler has his chance.... 149-5.

Seems Buttler will bat at 7. I'm not sure it's worth it, but time will tell....

According to reports, Batty will come in as the pitch looks like it will suit spin and Ansari is unfit.

England were well beaten and could make changes for the next one. Broad might have to sit it out and I'd guess Woakes will come in. It might be similar with Ansari and Ball or Batty could be picked depending on the situation. Then there's Duckett. The management usually give a batsman more time but might feel they have to drop/protect him. Buttler looks about the only realistic option they have left but he's not a straightforward replacement.

You can't blame Hameed who got one that pretty much shot along the ground. 75-1.

It'll be a major surprise if India don't win.
Meanwhile, Oz have certainly rung the changes!

A review gives England their second early wicket. 17-2. India still highly likely to win.

NZ have collapsed to 194 for 9, leading Pakistan by 61 runs. Sky Sports 5.

England collapsing like a house of cards. 82 for 5.

Very sad news that Daniel Prodan has passed away at the age of just 44. RIP.

Last night felt like the calm before the storm. Only two episodes to go. Next week Baptiste will work out what happened, and the final one will be bringing it all to a conclusion.
But if Baptiste dies before he can tell anyone what happened, it'll be the most 2016 thing to happen in 2016.
I take your point. I hope it comes to a clear conclusion. It can be frustrating when this type of thing still isn't resolved after a fairly lengthy series full of puzzles.

England 400 all out, a very decent score. Now we'll see how the bowling goes and whether they've selected the right attack.
