Not thrilling to watch but this partnership has been excellent.
India was on the brink, at 3/55, and could have succumbed.
3/149 and a lead of 122.
Rahane 57*, Pujara 40*.
Donny.
It's a game. Enjoy it.

India 262 - 8, leading by 234.
Engrossing cricket at the moment and perfect for a lover of test cricket like me. However due to it being the last day and with the current Indian score leaving England to get more than 3 runs an over, sadly I predict a draw.
Don't confuse your current path with your final destination. Just because it's dark and stormy now doesn't meant that you aren't headed for glorious sunshine!

And the Test cricket theatre moves into another intriguing stage.
After England removed Pant (22) & Ishant (4), Shami & Bumrah put on 50+ for the 9th wicket, just about 'safing' the Test for India.
Shami 40*, Bumrah 27. The lead is 244.

Shami powers one into the crowd. 50 n.o.
England must've put too much import on the comms mentioning India's long tail more than once. "Get Pant and they're into the 'long tail'.
Shami 52*, Bumrah 30*. The lead is 259. P'ship of 77 unf.
