Another brilliant session for England, who are dominating this Test to almost embarrassing extent. Joe Root is batting absolutely beautifully, and if he keeps focused, he’s a decent chance of surpassing his best Test score of 254. 10.05am GMT
94th over: England 320-4 (Root 168, Buttler 7) So how long do England bat here? Even if they go all day tomorrow, they’ll have two days to take 10 wickets on a track that’s already offering help to the twirlers and with three very nifty pace options. Meantime Root clobbers Perera again, this time on the flank, then again on the shoulder! He’s going to look like me when I went snowboarding. Still, at least he’s got the memory of the 0 runs he accumulated yesterday to console him, as he walks off for a sneaky cry. Goodness me, what a Test he’s having. Root sweeps a single, Buttler defends two, and that, my
Friends, is tea.
