Good fight from the lower order, poms were in bit of worry because of Bumrah but after his spell, nothing went anything on India's way and once again tail wagged against them.

81 runs partnership for the 8th wicket and counting. England will be mighty please with this outcome.also, 100 overs are done, now extra miles will be on their tired legs.

If India can wrap up the England innings under 400, then they would have the upper hand. So far in this series, Indian top order batting has been of top quality. And this time the middle/lower order is also quite strong, due to the additions of Washington Sundar and Nitish Kumar Reddy. My only concern is in having Karun Nair as no.3. He needs to perform in this match. Anyway, India needs to take 3 more wickets, and looks like Bumrah needs to come back in order to do that.

They did wrapped up things quickly but considering the first hour of day, i feel they gave away 40-50 runs extra.

They should've bundled up poms on to around 320-ish and 350 at worst. Dropped catches did play its part. Sometimes it feels like Indian team lack killing instinct when they are on top. Yes, opposition is allowed to play well but fielding is one department which is totally in your control and they seems to be fumble a lot on crucial moment.

Edit

Lol no love between IPL teammates, poor Jaiswal.
