Early days but fantastic to see.

A draw is definitely the most likely result but get to a lead of 250-300 quickly enough tomorrow and it will put a bit of pressure on the India batsmen. Less than a full day to bowl out India on that pitch doesn't look likely but they've given themselves a chance.

Hameed out for 82, off what was clearly a no ball.  Stokes pushed up the order, so half an hour of smashing it all over the place, a lead of 300 odd, and try and make India suffer a little.

Whenever Cook declares, this is ending in a draw.

Good effort, lots of positives from that and despite being a fairly high scoring affair in which a draw looked highly likely it was an entertaining test match.

England have an opener, two genuine international spinners and a wicketkeeper who isn't all that terrible with the gloves. If Duckett makes runs at 4, they could be on to a winner.
