Latest Updates: What a roller-coaster of a day. India started off with four wickets in the first session. Then Buttler and Stokes led England’s fightback with 89 runs in the second session without losing a wicket. India were desperately looking to break 169-run stand. That’s when Bumrah stepped up and and delivered the spell of the Test. He scythed through the middle and lower order to clinch a five-for. The tail did frustrate at the end but India are just one wicket away from clawing back into the series. Day 3, report: England will have to set a record for the highest successful fourth-innings chase if they are to win the third test against India after the dominant tourists declared at 352 for seven with Virat Kohli making 103 on Monday. England’s opening pair of Alastair Cook and Keaton Jennings survived a tricky nine overs before the close of play, reaching 23 without loss. [caption id=“attachment_5009231” align=“alignleft” width=“380”] File image of Joe Root and Virat Kohli.[/caption] That means Joe Root’s side require another 498 runs to win over the final two days of play and history suggests that is highly unlikely. Only four teams have scored more than 400 to win a test, West Indies’ 418 to beat Australia in 2003 being the highest. The highest fourth-innings winning test total at Trent Bridge is 284 by England against New Zealand in 2004. Having started the third day on 124 for two, India were barely troubled through two and a half sessions of steady, if unspectacular, accumulation under grey skies. After a fruitless morning session for England’s bowling attack, Cheteshwar Pujara, who had been dropped in the morning on 40, was caught at first slip by Cook off the bowling of Ben Stokes for 72, ending his partnership with Kohli at 113. Skipper Kohli, who was out for 97 in the first innings, took few risks during his patient knock which finally came to an end after 197 balls when he was trapped lbw by seamer Chris Woakes. Hardik Pandya was unbeaten on 52 when Kohli finally decided to declare and let his bowlers give Cook and Jennings an uncomfortable mini-session. England, who lead the five-test series 2-0, suffered a blow during the morning when wicketkeeper Jonny Bairstow had to leave the ground with what turned out to be a fractured finger. Bairstow, a key part of the home team’s batting line-up, was hit on the end of the middle finger by a James Anderson delivery but is expected to bat in their second innings. With inputs from Reuters

Remarkable day of Test cricket
Outstanding work by India’s bowlers today, but victory deferred till tomorrow by England’s stout-hearted middle and lower order. Sleepless night worrying about the fickle weather though the forecast is reassuring

After 102 overs,England 311/9 ( Adil Rashid 30 , James Anderson 8)
England take it into day 5! The first one of the final over whizzed over Anderson’s head as he looked to fend. A solid defense is followed by a single and cheers from the crowd. Bumrah then beats Rashid’s outside edge. Rashid blocks the next two off the middle.
After 101 overs**,England** 310/9 ( Adil Rashid 30 , James Anderson 7)
Excellent probing over from Ashwin Beat Rashid on a couple of occasions. One ended up in a huge LBW appeal which was given not out by the umpire and on the review and one whizzed past the outside edge.
After 100 overs,England 305/9 ( Adil Rashid 30 , James Anderson 6)
Rashid batting really well. A couple of lovely shots in that over. One behind square on the off side and one in front of square on the leg side. He was solid in defence off the rest. 8 runs off the over.
Indeed brilliant performance!
Fast and accurate. An excellent and effective spell of pace bowling from @Jaspritbumrah93. Dismissing the top & inform batters of England is a big performance in a comeback from injury match. #ENGvIND @BCCI

After 99 overs,England 297/9 ( Adil Rashid 22 , James Anderson 6)
Plays and misses from Anderson in that over. He was beaten on the inside edge and then he went after a wide one and missed. A couple of blocks brings out cheers from the crowd.
After 98 overs,England 297/9 ( Adil Rashid 22 , James Anderson 6)
Shami didn’t get much movement. He did manage to shake up Anderson with a bouncer and then one angling in and hitting the groin area. Rashid then defends the last three. He gets an outside edge off the last one but it goes along the ground to backward point. 5 runs off the over.

Two Indian bowlers taking a five-for each in a Test in England:
Manchester, 1946 (L Amarnath & V Mankand)
Lord’s, 2014 (B Kumar & I Sharma)
Nottingham, 2018* (H Pandya & J Bumrah)
After 97 overs,England 292/9 ( Adil Rashid 22 , James Anderson 1)
A fiery over from Bumrah. He gets with the wicket of Broad off the second ball and then he darts one short which whizzes past the outside edge. Another short one hits him on the gloves as he looks to fend away. He finally gets off strike with a single to the off side. Rashid leaves the last one alone. One run off the over.
OUT! Bumrah does have his five-for. Good length delivery outside leg, angling away. Broad is squared up and he gets an outside edge to second slip. Bumrah has his finger on his lips to silence the crowd.
Broad c Rahul b Bumrah 20(29)
After 96 overs,England **291/8 ( Adil Rashid 2**2 , Stuart Broad 20)
Rashid is using his feet nicely and dead-batting them into the ground. 6 dot balls in the over. Suddenly Rashid and Broad have gone on to defend from attack.
After 95 overs**,England** 290/8 ( Adil Rashid 22 , Stuart Broad 19)
Broad has gone back to defending. After five dots, he guides a low full toss to backward point for a three to retain strike.
Players with 3000-plus runs and 400-plus wickets in Tests:
Richard Hadlee
Kapil Dev
Shane Warne
Shaun Pollock
STUART BROAD*
After 94 overs,England 287/8 ( Adil Rashid 22 , Stuart Broad 16)
A very good over from Ashwin. He beat Rashid off a straighter one off the first ball and then delivered a floater at significant pace which was left alone. He followed it up with another swinger to beat Rashid’s outside edge. A maiden.
