00:00That's Harrybrook, on strike, starts off with a single, and the last ball, not a lot happening
00:20for Akashdeep from that end.
00:26That's well played in the end, it bounced off a length, adjusted well, it took his bottom
00:31hand off, like that, width on offer, put that away.
00:41Bounce it!
00:46That's gone off the gloves, and roll back onto the stumps.
00:50I feel he's a little unlucky here, Oli Pope, but India get the break through, an extra
00:55bounce here for Akashdeep.
01:00He's awake, with a couple of runs, and will get more, no, settling for two.
01:09And that's Harry, the bag has gone off, kept a little low too, he's reviewing it, that
01:29took him totally by surprise.
01:37Brilliant, that is a shot of a man in sublime form.
01:4187 for five.
01:47Clipped away, and that'll be a boundary for Stokes.
01:56What about three slips, how many runs have they got to play with, 515 runs to play with.
02:07Oh, nearly dragged on.
02:09He went to play, he then thought about leaving it, luckily it just went past the stumps.
02:17It's gone very fine, boundary to end the over, 98 for five.
02:31As it get past mid on, gets a hand on it, saves the boundary, just be a couple.
02:37Lions play, didn't they, against India 8.
02:44Clipped, in the air.
02:54Harry Brook might have a seam print on the inside of his knee as well.
02:58Wakes up tomorrow morning, been sore, very sore.
03:03A couple of leg buys down to fine leg.
03:07Jodeja is quick.
03:23Excellent drive, Jodeja is not going to catch up with that.
03:28Looks in great touch, Jamie Smith, England are going to need more, a lot more.
03:32He's got protection out there, so it'll just be a single.
03:40Now it's Stokes on strike.
03:42Does that suit your taste, Malibu, Chariade?
03:49Haven't tried that concoction.
03:53Very good from Stokes.
04:00Let the ball come, waited, waited, and then full flourish of the blade down to third man.
04:10Beautiful shot.
04:11Evades extra cover and will race away to the fence.
04:15Two high-class shots from England's captain, 1.20 for five.
04:28Good shot through mid-wicket from Jamie Smith with a straight bat.
04:34Oh, no.
04:44Real problems for Stokes with Jodeja firing the ball into that rough outside the off-stomp and finding some spin and bounce.
04:51Generally, Siraj angling the ball in at Jamie Smith.
04:58He's not happy with that missed field because he felt he had Smith under a bit of pressure.
05:08Goes fine and, yeah, he's not happy, Siraj.
05:12Gave that single away, the previous ball.
05:15Jamie Smith off-strike and now Stokes clipping a four.
05:18Pulled very firmly.
05:22Terrific shot from Stokes.
05:31Hmm.
05:32Jodeja is coming back.
05:34He's coming over the wicket to Jamie Smith.
05:40Just have a look.
05:41If the batter doesn't play, he'll come back round.
05:43If, as Smith did with that first ball, he continues to play the sweep,
05:47you might say, well, I'll just have a look for a two or three overs, see if I can get a top edge.
05:55Hmm, that's scuttled along the ground.
05:57It's gone.
05:58A nutmegged Rishabh Pant.
06:00Four byes is the result.
06:031.42 for five.
06:05Kumar.
06:06But now he's negated one more dismissal.
06:11Nicely timed by Jamie Smith.
06:14He's got plenty of cover on the leg side, Siraj.
06:26There are five fielders.
06:28Because he's trying to bowl stump to stump.
06:31Might get two, actually, which is not what India want.
06:35Oh, no.
06:36It's a good bit of fielding.
06:37So Stokes will be on strike to Jadeja.
06:39India have what they want.
06:401.46 for five.
06:42Swept hard and fine for four.
06:47Washington Sundar of Tamil Nadu, India, and Lancashire.
07:03Now if that's pad first, it's close, and the finger goes up on the point of lunch.
07:15Stokes may review it, but I'm fairly certain this was pad first, and that's why the umpire's finger was raised.
07:22Original decision is out.
07:29Impact in line.
07:31Hitting the wickets.
07:34Brilliant bit of cricket from India on the point of lunch.
07:41A little before.
07:48Wide open spaces.
07:50Plenty of acreage in front of the back for Jamie Smith.
07:5453 overs after this.
07:59There's plenty of time in the game.
08:00Looking for the second.
08:02Get a little bit of a rush on there, Chris Wokes, I think.
08:12Again, edged away.
08:13This time, Jadeja is up.
08:16Saving the single.
08:17That will run away for four.
08:19Need a great escape.
08:27Just giving Jadeja all the encouragement he needs to persist.
08:31With this.
08:36Little bit of bounce there.
08:39That single takes Smith to his fifth half century in test match cricket.
08:46Along with 200, another batter has enjoyed himself.
08:53Wow.
08:58Gets that one away.
09:02That will be four as well.
09:03A little bit off the thick outside edge.
09:09Six more.
09:14That has gone flat.
09:17Edge through.
09:19He's only got two catches there.
09:23A first slip and sort of a fourth, fourth and a half.
09:27Another opportunity created though by Akash Deep.
09:31Top edge.
09:32Simple catch.
09:33England seven down.
09:34The plan has worked.
09:35Thrill to bits.
09:36Stay down.
09:37He was giving in straight away.
09:38Well, straight away.
09:39Jamie Smith is going to ask for the third umpire to have a look at this one.
09:46That was a very late decision.
09:48Okay.
09:49Original decisions out.
09:50Impact in line.
09:51Wickets missing.
09:52Go back on field.
09:53Well, he's made some good decisions.
09:54That one wasn't.
09:55And he's just thrown the ball straight at Mohamed Saraj and hit him on the head.
09:58Goes for the Yorker.
09:59Over pitches.
10:00And that's going to run away for a boundary to Jamie Smith.
10:02And he's just thrown the ball straight at Mohamed Saraj and hit him on the head.
10:19Goes for the Yorker.
10:22Over pitches and that's going to run away for a boundary to Jamie Smith.
10:27What?
10:34Cast is off him.
10:37Might be with a boundary.
10:38In fact, it is as Jadeja gives up the chase.
10:42A left boot on it.
10:47I think it may know it's not going to go.
10:52He's going to take him on.
11:03And we've seen that a few times.
11:05It's a short hit in that direction.
11:07All the way for six.
11:09Short again.
11:12That has gone miles.
11:14It has gone way back.
11:16At no stage was Jamie Smith worried about that one.
11:21Slow one.
11:23This will not go all the way.
11:25That will be five wickets for Akash Deep.
11:28His first five wicket haul in test match cricket.
11:31And he is running around Edgbaston.
11:34Why wouldn't you?
11:35What a bowler he's been in this test match.
11:37Big slog sweep.
11:41It's a dangerous shot out the rough.
11:45But he's nailed it.
11:50Oh, now put down.
11:52If he got something on that.
11:54Sometimes it just turns out the rough.
11:56We'll have a look at the umpire.
11:58Leg slip comes in.
11:59There's two of them there now.
12:02Short and smash leg side.
12:05And the Hollies think it's gone all the way.
12:08I'm going to check it.
12:13Nailed.
12:14On the up.
12:15Little bit wide.
12:16Little bit of a loosener.
12:20Yeah, I said he's got some ability.
12:25Josh Tang off the pair.
12:32In the out.
12:35He's got it.
12:36Brilliant catch.
12:37Mohamed Siraj.
12:41Indian players charged towards him.
12:44Awesome bit of fielding.
12:45Where's your agent?
12:48Reverse sweep.
12:49First ball.
12:55Interesting shot.
12:59That's up in the air.
13:03Oh, put that down.
13:04Miss shots it.
13:08More Mohamed Siraj.
13:15Sure Bashir.
13:17Takes the aerial route.
13:18And.
13:19Clears the fence.
13:21With a six.
13:23Well.
13:25I agree totally.
13:28Up in the air.
13:30The finger has gone up.
13:32Bashir is reviewing.
13:35Come back.
13:36Come back one.
13:37Yeah.
13:38And.
13:39Through to the pad.
13:40It's.
13:41It's a flat line.
13:42Can I see that it keeps going.
13:43Out.
13:46Keep the ball going.
13:47Running through.
13:48So.
13:49So.
13:50So.
13:51The weight will continue.
13:53Entire crowd's been on its feet for a couple of hours now.
13:57They're all.
13:58Watching.
14:01He drives down the ground this time.
14:05Another couple of runs.
14:06And.
14:07So.
