Rahane must carry on normal. Defo think Hardik & Pant must play naturally. Runs are massive and if one them come off England are under pressure.

For England though. They currently have all the cards up their sleeves. They probably waiting for some reverse now to kick things into action from other end.

I don't think it's a good idea for Pandya to bat aggressively. They should just try to trod on at 2.5 rpo as they were doing before. If we lose Rahane, suicide mission.

Kohli should make Rahane pop a purple pill and make him watch Rocky I at 7x speed during tea.

Be really **** if he gets out softly bat-pad to the spinner or knicks off not looking to score.

If he goes into his shell I don't back his patience or defensive technique 9/10

We do need to score most of the runs before the new ball is available though. 2.5 in 27 overs leaves 50 odd runs to get against the new ball.

Rahane looked so much more comfortable against Moeen than Kohli, who survived on pure luck and grit. Was hoping he'd keep shielding the latter during Moeen's overs.

Ashwin can **** off, Moeen has looked infinitely more threatening than he did yesterday.

Yeah he needs to try to stay there for a while. I hope he has his mind set on it, he looks like he has what it takes otherwise.

Will be significantly worse if he gets out missing on an ugly slog. He's not useless with the bat, he probably could hang in there even in these conditions, if he tries.

Rahane always looks stoned anyway. Doubt he needs to be popping pills.

I firmly believe there's something historical at work here. Have so since Pujara's doggedness in the first innings. Might go down to the wire but we're taking this out. Faith, guys!
