    I wonder if any of Rohit’s family were able to attend. If only they’d show us after every boundary so we can be sure. Maybe his wife.

    If it's spinning as much as that on the first morning it's going to be a quick Test match this one! We're going to have to bat really well

    Disappointed we didn’t get Stokes Foakes Woakes in this one

    Gone a bit flat after lunch. Get Rohit out soon and we’ll be looking at batting before the day is out

    I'm assuming that was his wife they showed wearing the sunglasses and dark dress?

    Only just started watching. Is it the spin minefield that bbc updates are making it out to be? Match winning innings from Rohit if so.

    Spinners causing definite problems but the two batsman using their feet and attacking well.

    Just got up, assume we lost the toss which in India is like going 1 down in the first minute, uphill from here.

    A hundred partnership, good going after Kohli was out for a duck.

    It's all gone a bit rubbish. Anderson shouldn't have been rested with Archer out, Bess shouldn't have been left out after his first test performance and winning the toss and batting first in India it is tough to win for the bowling side.

    The audio is out of sync with the pictures since tea. You can hear what happens before you see it

    Update: They sorted it now and this has become the most boring post in the history of the BBS, if it wasn't already

    Irritatingly the sound from the pitch is coming through a second or so before the images and the commentary. I'm hearing the Oohs before the near misses.

    Edit: and then it's fixed :)

    Certainly has. I tried going for a shower to take a wicket - didn’t work. Then downstairs to wash up breakfast things, and make some coffee. That hasn’t worked either.
    Even their crowd are a bit quiet

    200 up for India. Playing well (that always does the trick!)

    We don’t look like getting a wicket...

    India playing well but by no means an incredible or insurmountable score.
