England 341/5. Cruising home now.
27 to win
Root & Smith see it home, the latter with a couple of sixes to finish it off.
First time a team has lost a test match after five different players scored centuries for them over the two innings.

India have only one bowler and as bad a batting tail as I’ve seen. I’d fancy my chances of bowling some of them out.
There must have been a few Indian bowlers resting up for the IPL?
IPL is over. Bit of a changing of the guard for them. . Genuinely didn’t think England had it in them
Thought India had two or three fast bowlers. Must be an interim. Thought England would fold like a Galway team tbh.

Stumps on Day 3 at Edgbaston.
India 587 & 64/1 England 407
India lead by 244. England have a job on their hands to save the test.
They’ll save it easy. India won’t bowl them out a second time.
England set a target of 608 to Bazball their way to victory.
First wicket down. Zak Crawley out for a duck.

50/3. Joe Root departs.
Any sign of rain?
It’s raining England wickets at the moment.
Raining all morning at Edgbaston. If they don’t get underway soon, difficult to see Englang bazballing down the 536 runs they still need to win.
England 83/5.
England are sliding to a mammoth defeat here.

India 587 & 427/6d England 407 & 271
India win by 337.
England need a re-think. Their problems here began with putting India in to bat.
