Jayzuz. We've got them on the ropes, stop letting them get their breath back.

Not much anyone can do if Dhoni decides to have a swing. Sharma is clinging on to his wicket by the skin of his teeth.

That's a little optimistic.

My fear is that this isn't a contest so India getting quick wickets would confound that fear hence optimism.

Shows how expensive a drop can be. Wasn't Sharma dropped by Bell on his second ball, while India were on 97ish?

Good start from England. Root gets hit 100, Broad is lashing it all over the place for fun. Obviously going to just swipe at everything and get a big a lead as possible in a short time. Plenty of time in the match. India look all over the place.

Both Broad and Anderson out to dodgy decisions but a lead of 338 on 1st innings.

Now can the Indians show a little pride and get to Monday?
