Ind 357-9 (84 ovs) & 224 vs Eng 247 | Scorecard

Jadeja falls after getting to his fifty. He looks to steer Tongue to thirdman but ends up guiding it straight to Brook at second slip, who to England's relief manages to hold on to the sharp chance to his right.

Jadeja walks back after scoring 53 as India lose their eighth wicket.

Tongue has worked incredibly hard in the second innings to take 3/110, while Atkinson has also been superb to pick 3/104.

Tongue tries the short ball first up to Siraj but it is down the leg side before he defends the next.

Tongue bags another wicket in the over as he traps Siraj leg before wicket with the full delivery. India have no review left which means Siraj has to make his way back even if he is not happy with the decision.

Siraj was visibly upset as he had got a clear inside edge as confirmed by the UltraEdge but India have no reviews yet. Sudharsan, Gill and Jurel all burnt out the three reviews to have another look at close leg before calls.
