00:00Oh well they're pretty confident the Indians have been testing to see
00:27Oh that's a lovely shot. Great intent from Stokes as he chipped down the track and hits it on the up. More runs on the onside this time. Just a single.
00:45That's driven. Was in the air for a bit but it's disappeared to the fence.
00:57Nicely played. And in the gap for four. He was in total control of the shot.
01:07This one Keplow. Right through the defense.
01:14Hit him for pace as well. It ended up hitting the top of off stump.
01:21The previous delivery that flew through. He had high hands and expecting the same.
01:27And it just skidded through. Perfect delivery.
01:34It would be interesting to see where the two balls pitched.
01:44That's a quick delivery. It's bounced beating the keeper.
01:49And there it gets the outsider. It's a pickish one this time.
02:10More runs here. Unusual that Bumra really pushes it up on such a full length.
02:16Unless he's looking for the Yorker.
02:23Pass gets it away. Square again.
02:26And then under question.
02:29Paco gives chase.
02:30Huge cheer for Ben Stokes. All round excellence.
02:45From one of England's greatest all rounders. Five wickets in this match.
02:49Now a test match hundred. His first for a couple of years.
02:53That beats Sudarshan at gully.
03:00Runs to be had. England's 602 for eight now.
03:06Finally Stokes goes down the ground.
03:12Ooh. He's just got enough of it. I don't think he felt that he had.
03:17Signs now that England want to push things forward more quickly.
03:25So Stokes down the ground for a six.
03:27And now the reverse sweep for four.
03:32Hammered.
03:34Right out of the middle of the bat.
03:36Bielder does his utmost best. It's Jaiswell.
03:41But it's gone away for four.
03:43Smashed.
03:46Oh that is such a powerful strike.
03:49That's gone for six.
03:53Now Kars is heaving away leg side.
03:57And he's heaving away into the gap for four.
03:59So.
04:01The accelerator is being pushed.
04:08Goes again. That sounded alright.
04:09But it's gone a long way up.
04:10Has it got the legs? You bet.
04:17Down the ground.
04:19And he's going to get a boundary.
04:20And he's going to get six.
04:24That is the highest team total.
04:26In test cricket at Old Trafford.
04:32Well he's thrown it wide.
04:33And Stokes has gone after that.
04:34Not got it.
04:35Good catch in the end.
04:36Sighted us.
04:37And had to gather himself.
04:40Keep an eye on Ben Stokes here.
04:42Is Kars coming with him?
04:43I don't think he is.
04:45Total against India anywhere.
04:48And a lot of that.
04:51Total.
04:52One.
04:53Joe Root.
04:54One hundred and fifty.
04:55Two.
04:56Ben Stokes.
04:57One forty one.
05:00Long leavers.
05:02Strong man.
05:04Catching practice for the crowd here at Old Trafford.
05:06And he's picked that up underneath it.
05:07Taken.
05:08And Siraj turns quickly to the crowd.
05:09And says there you have it.
05:10That is the end of the England innings.
05:11And what a monster of an innings it is.
05:12From England comes to an edge.
05:13Danger over the wicket.
05:14Trying to aim for the football.
05:15And Kars actually.
05:16Picked it up.
05:17Beautifully.
05:18Well behind squares.
05:19Siraj.
05:20Plays perfectly.
05:21Celebrates.
05:22And he's picked that up.
05:23And he's picked that up.
05:24Underneath it.
05:25Taken.
05:26And Siraj turns quickly to the crowd.
05:27And says there you have it.
05:28That is the end of the England innings.
05:29And what a monster of an innings it is.
05:30From England comes to an edge.
05:31Danger over the wicket.
05:32Trying to aim for the football.
05:33And Kars actually.
05:34Picked it up.
05:35Beautifully.
05:36Well behind squares.
05:37Siraj.
05:38Plays perfectly.
05:40Celebrates.
05:42To the crowd.
05:43Even today just celebrates.
05:47Edged.
05:48Taken.
05:49There's the first one.
05:50First over.
05:51It's Wokes.
05:52It started with Stokes and the 100.
05:55And it's continued with Wokes with the ball.
05:59Always the way.
06:00You get runs on the board.
06:02Keep the batters out on the field for a long time.
06:06Batting never looks as easy.
06:09England 669.
06:11And two and two.
06:12He's on a hat trick.
06:13It is all happening.
06:14And it's happening because of Wokes.
06:15Oh.
06:16Sliding maybe.
06:17Everyone's up.
06:18All the slips.
06:19Corden.
06:20Rod Tucker just says no.
06:21Yeah.
06:22And there's movement too.
06:23He's getting that length through.
06:24He's getting the Indian players to think I've got to play forward.
06:27And I'm getting a little bit nervous.
06:28Slightly anticlimactic really.
06:29Slightly anticlimactic really.
06:30With the first over and himself on a hat trick for Wokes.
06:31Corden.
06:32Corden.
06:33Corden.
06:34Corden.
06:35Corden.
06:36Corden.
06:37Corden.
06:38Corden.
06:39Corden.
06:40Corden.
06:41Corden.
06:42Corden.
06:43Corden.
06:44Corden.
06:45Corden.
06:46Corden.
06:47Corden.
06:48Corden.
06:49Corden.
06:50Corden.
06:51God.
06:52Corden.
06:53Corden.
06:54C Emmett.
06:55Slightly anticlimactic really.
06:56With the first over and himself on a hat trick for Wokes.
06:59C Dodge.
07:01Routes for the big inswinger.
07:04He thinks toe first, he's pleading that it's toe first.
07:09Nice and slow.
07:10I don't have any conclusively evidence that the ball hit the pad first so you can
07:16stay with the on-field call, not out.
07:23Well, you can hear
07:24the third umpire say no conclusive
07:26evidence there to overrule
07:28the on-field umpire.
07:32They'll lose their review.
07:35Indian captain gets
07:36off the mark.
07:41It's very
07:42important now. Subban Gil just plays his
07:44natural game.
07:46Beautiful.
07:50Just punched down the ground.
07:52It's been India's most consistent
07:53player. Gets in excellent
07:55positions. Come back
07:58for three, KRO.
08:05Excellent
08:06timing. Excellent touch.
08:11Picked up length
08:12quickly. Little bit of width on offer.
08:16Timed nicely and hit into the ground
08:19here. Old Trafford with the square
08:22being so hard, it kicked on
08:23and he'll come back for three.
08:25And that'll make him feel better.
08:28That'll get his legs
08:29moving a bit, running those three
08:31runs as well.
08:32That should go all the way.
08:46The outfield with the rain this
08:48morning has slowed up a bit
08:49and it does.
08:51Lovely off drive. Perfect off drive.
09:01And one of his trademark shots is
09:08easing into it.
09:09It's through, is it?
09:15Pack slips field. Field is in front of the wicket
09:18so he knows he has space there if he finds the gap
09:20and he does.
09:24It's glorious.
09:26Absolutely glorious for Gil.
09:28Straight down the ground.
09:29He's gone once he goes, twice.
09:36Both, both.
09:37Absolutely beautiful.
09:40Well, that one's even better.
09:46One to Gil, two to Gil and one now to KL.
09:50It is a master class in straight driving.
09:52Yeah, run. Just a little push through the covers.
10:00You'll watch of Ben Stokes after that ball as well.
10:08To get the ball a little fuller than that
10:10because that's too easy for Schumann-Gill.
10:12It's a lovely uncomplicated punch off the back through.
10:20Beautiful shot.
10:22Short extra cover.
10:24Attempted to move to his right.
10:25It's Crawley and intercept that
10:27but it was past him in a flash.
10:33Short and that's clever.
10:35That's an uppercut one bounce four.
10:38So back-to-back boundaries for India's captain.
10:45Well, that's cut.
10:46Backward of point.
10:48Kars is out there to protect the boundary
10:49but it's evaded him.
10:51Picks up the length so quickly.
10:58And another one.
10:59But this was a bit of a gift.
11:01Kars will make it round to cut that off this time.
11:04Dothan not getting his length right here.
11:11That's worked really hard.
11:12That is half an appeal.
11:13Jagged back.
11:15Legs siding.
11:16On-field original decision is not out.
11:21Pitching outside of impact in line.
11:23Because missing you can stay with your on-field not-out decision.
11:28Yeah, not a good one.
11:29Yeah, not a good one.
11:30That, I think that was Harry Brook.
11:32Oh, it's not a good one.
11:33That, I think it's a good one.
11:33It's a good one.
11:35Oh, it's a good one.
11:35Oh, it's a great one.
11:35Oh, it's an empty one.
11:37It's a good one.
11:37It's a great one.
11:37Down, Dawson at a wide gully, flying to his right.
11:48Oh, top edge sweep, no 45 in place, long chase for Zach Crawley.
11:56He will come back for the third.
12:03Beautiful shot, through mid wicket, Archer chasing.
12:07Does pull it up, good bit of work.
12:12Gill will go to his fourth 50 of the series.
12:16Eight, test match 50 overall, every time he's got a 50.
12:23Got to finish India session, you feel.
12:2786 for two.
12:32Lovely from KL Rahul, who leans into that off drive.
12:35Keep your eye on Stokes giving chase, because we think he's just feeling his hamstring a little.
12:44He seemed to chase that okay, he hasn't bowled yet, remember.
12:46Very clever and classy from KL Rahul.
12:53He was in complete control of that shot, knew exactly what he was trying to do.
12:57Well, that's given Jamie Smith no chance whatsoever.
13:12Just rides with the extra bounce and the pace.
13:15Puts his hand up to say, no, I'll just take the single, I'll move along to yet another half century in this series.
13:24It's glorious as well.
13:31Finds the boundary of yet another sweetly timed shot.
13:35He's played that beautifully.
13:40Yeah, he knows that if he gets it into around that chest area, he's got all the skills.
13:49Goes after the full wide one and there's no protection on the offside, except for just forward of point and eludes him.
13:56Guided very deliberately, there's a slip and a fifth slip or a fine gully and KL has just guided that with great precision.
14:14Cut and cut with real conviction by KL Rahul, who moves now to 80, so close.
14:25It's at gully under the lid, but that's misdirected down the leg side and Shubman Gill has just turned that with ease.
14:36And Zach Crawley cannot prevent it going to the boundary.
14:42Change of angle from Root, but it was such a slow looping full toss.
14:48And all KL Rahul had to do was bunt it down the ground.
14:55Well done KL Rahul and Shubman Gill.
15:01Just remember, they came together when the score was not...
