arpit: "dont understand this strategy of offering easy single to the new batsman, even if its root, you need to keep the oressure on first few deliveries to him" The trade-off is that the batters opening the bat face, which can be dangerous with the ball seaming

Anurag Uniyal: "The thing about all three Indian pacers is they rhythm bowlers, and at the moment all three look in near perfect rhythm."

Morne Morkel went over and had a word with Siraj on the boundary

India have bowled superbly this morning. Siraj in particular has asked plenty of questions and has been unlucky that he hasn't got anything to show for it. India have been charged up in the field too, they're making sure that the English batters don't get too comfortable at the crease. Proper contest brewing here.

Siraj to Pope, out Lbw!! Pope lbw b Siraj 27(34) [4s-5]

Siraj to Pope, THATS OUT!! Lbw!!

Pope given OUT LBW. Reluctant review because he knows he's gone here. Pope is disappointed. No bat, impact on middle and off, smashing down the poles!

Runs started flowing, we have to restrict the batsmen from scoring runs in 4s.
