England vs India 5th Test live: score, updates from day 3
Jaiswal and Deep bring up the hundred for the touring side, and they look really in control here. The lead is now 78. Tongue is coming round the wicket but Jaiswal has played a smart hand, fencing one through the vacant third-slip region, and then taking a single off the fourth ball of the over. They're farming the strike well. Bethell's over was, indeed, to facilitate a change of ends for Gus Atkinson who has taken over at the Pavilion end. First job is to try and shift the nightwatchman Deep, who has played pretty nicely for his ten runs. Josh Tongue will take the Vauxhall end. He was much better yesterday with his lines after spraying it like a fireman on the first day. Well that is interesting — Bethell is opening up from the pavilion end but it might be just to facilitate a change of ends for one of the seamers. He's been taken for six already. The Leicestershire head coach Alfonso Thomas took aim at England's selectors for picking Dawson ahead of Ahmed for Old Trafford. Thomas watched five-times capped Ahmed, 20, England's youngest Test cricketer, hit 119 in Leicestershire's first-innings total of 471 on Tuesday — his fifth hundred of the summer and the fourth County Championship match in a row in which he has scored a century. Read the full story here. The nets have been taken down off the outfield, the ground staff have put the stumps in and people are streaming into the Oval — we're 15 minutes away from the start of play on what will be another extended day. We should get 98 overs. Morning session: 11am – 1pmLunch: 1pm – 1.40pmAfternoon session: 1.40pm – 3.55pmTea: 3.55pm – 4.15pmEvening session: 4.15pm – 6.30pm, plus an extra half an hour to get the overs in. Martin Samuel, at the Oval Whatever happens from here, however this series pans out, one thing is increasingly clear: we can't go back now. For the foreseeable future, this is how the England openers will be asked to play; indeed, this is how they should play. What Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett did at the Oval in 77 balls represented more than merely a template. It is the evolution of a sport, a logical development. It just doesn't seem that way right now because it's still so new. No one can quite get to grips with the thought that it won't be the same again. Read the full article here. Simon Wilde, at the Oval After a summer of toil, bowlers finally found some luck yesterday on a helpful pitch at the Oval. After a series where bat has dominated ball, there was swing, seam and lbws all at play on an eventful day. It seems the tables have finally turned, and not before time. Read the full piece here. Get ready for today with a rundown of all the action from yesterday. The India bowler has played every game of this series, and has never been far from the centre of the action. Plenty of brilliant moments, topped off by a brilliant spell yesterday to get his team right back in the game. Neil Manthorp and talkSPORT's cricket editor Jon Norman discuss a manic day at the Oval. The young opener led the Indian fightback with bat late on Friday evening, making a handsome half-century to put his team in a great position. He rode his luck a little, having been dropped a couple of times. Jarrod Kimber is joined by the former New Zealand captain Jeremy Coney to look back on the events on day two of the final Test. A very good morning from the Oval where summer seems to have returned. It's a balmy 19C — the sun is out and there's blue sky overhead, and, most importantly there is no rain forecast. Things are very evenly poised on the pitch after an eventful day yesterday. There's still a bit of life in the pitch which continues to have a tinge of green, but it should be a bit easier to bat today. In India will be intending to bat all day and get themselves a substantial lead. Join me throughout the day for all the action on and off the pitch.
