... Third Innings ...

For India, it was a combined bowling effort from their pacers! All of the 4 pacers had a wicket at least. Bumrah was the one who started things. Siraj always managed to pick a wicket whenever the team needed it. Shami probably bowled the best, he was a tad unlucky but still managed to get important breakthroughs. There was a time the Indian bowlers were put under pressure but they came out well in that phase.

The lead could have been a lot more had it not been for Bairstow. His ton is what has given England's score some respect. Just two batters managed to cross the 30-run mark. At one time they were reeling at 5 down for below 100. Bairstow along with Stokes first and then Billings helped them avoid the follow-on and also got the deficit down considerably.

The session started off in the same manner as the last one ended! Bairstow and Billings started off from where they left off before the delay. Bairstow got to yet another ton and the two put the Indian bowlers under great pressure. Once Bairstow fell though, the lower order did not last for long and India made quick work of the last few wickets and have given themselves a lead of 132!

With that debatable decision, the England inning has come to an end. India have done brilliantly to get a massive lead of 132 runs and they have put themselves into an excellent position here.

OUT! CAUGHT! England are all out for 284! On a length and outside off, Matthew Potts looks to push it towards the off side but gets a thick outside edge as the ball carries towards the second slip fielder where Shreyas Iyer takes it in his second attempt. Umpires decide to go upstairs. The soft signal is out. The ball seemed to have touched the ground but the decision goes in favour of the umpires. Strange. A mix of boos and cheers from the crowd. Potts shakes his head as he returns. That's a debatable decision.

Has that been taken? India are claiming it but it is referred upstairs.
