At the moment, India is in control of the entire match, meaning that England are more likely to lose this match. Akash Deep managed to inflict a heavy blow on England's batting order by dismissing two of England's top order reliable batsmen, Ben Duckett and Ollie Pope, both for zero runs. At the moment, three wickets have fallen for 77 runs, while Joe Root and Harry Brook are trying hard to build a crucial partnership.

The England team is fighting back here and I think that the early advantage that India had by scoring such a big score is slowly going away and all credit goes to the England's batsmen. Harry Brook and Jamie Smith, both are near to 150 runs. Although England had a very bad start but then it was these two batsmen who not only held the innings together but at the same time they scored fast and made sure England make a quick score to keep them out of pressure.

Although England still trail by 232 runs but now the fear of a follow-on is almost over and also if these two batsmen can bat for one more session, England will be in control of this innings.
Harry Brook and Jamie Smith are present on the crease and both are playing excellent in this match. We saw England team in bad condition when England team 5 players could not do well in this match and three players were out on 0 score and one player made 19  runs and that was Crawley and after we saw next player who made 22 runs. Indian team looked in good form but after we saw Jamie Smith ,Crawley show and they made partnership of 300+ runs. Now Jamie Smith is playing at 161 runs and he is playing very fast in this match as target is very big in this match because we saw when England chased big target in last match and now Indian team is angry and they will go towards draw match but England team is playing on home ground and could win this match .
