In the context of a low scoring game 100 is a massive advantage

Some effort by the top 3 of India but expect the rest to fall way.

Maybe England should let ‘Jarvo’ have a bowl?
Seriously though, I hope he receives a custodial sentence for his actions.

It’s all now on how long India want to bat on for and what to set England. Whatever the total is, England will bat to try to save the game rather than win it.
