    Thing that annoyed me most about today. The media. They pounced on Joe Root and the England team like a fickle football fan (myself included).

    They managed to go a step further they mentioned Root's muted celebration after his century. Maybe he reads what they say, maybe he doesn't but at that stage of the game he'd a job to do.

    When he scored his century England were massively in the 5hit. I doubt it was putting up two fingers but just getting on the with the task in hand.

    The Beeb. I've 5hit em'.

    They’re probably miffed that they couldn’t get any coverage of the series.

    I doubt Joe's celebrations or back of had anything to do with the media tbh. He's read it all before! Really pleased for him, he was due a good knock!

    Think India can feel a bit hard done to, 3 lbws umpires calls and given out each time! We're looking at a great lead though!

    I was expecting a lead of more than 46 but we’ve still got the better chance of victory.
    C’mon England … game on !

    Usual England collapse. I don't know what Foakes is doing. The only batter left and he is running out of partners.

    This pitch is like a small child sometimes lively, sometimes docile, sometimes sleepy. 200 lead ain't enough.
