We need to keep England’s lead to a max of 200 then score 350-400 and back ourselves to skittle England out under the pressure of a fourth innings run chase

Best case scenario is 10 wickets without a further run on the board then a 400 run opening partnership before the end of the day.

Oh and also Kohli being fired the following day.

Love this tbh.......the constant Gambhiring from our Indian posters is getting very tired.

nothing anyone says about this game right now can be considered gambhiring
England could legit declare by the lunch today and be favorites for an innings win
the most likely scenario for England to lose this game is if they forfeit it ala Pakistan in 2006

I was more thinking that due to yesterday, this is a 3-1 series victory for England locked in. Like **** it is.

There's very little chance of us not losing this series 3-1 tbh. Our openers have lost their mojo, middle order sucks, pant is a hack in these conditions, jaddu has been pretty useless when he's actually been on the field which hasnt been long, Ishant has reverted to pre 2015 Ishant, Shami has never done well in England, Bumrah might break his back again the number of overs kohli will make him bowl, ashwin cant even get in the team and Kohli is pretty worthless in every way right now except for a laugh when he drops a catch/knicks behind/makes a horrible captaincy call. And on the other hand we've played England's openers into form, and didnt even make grandpa bowl that many overs so he'll be fresh for the rest of the series.
We should be relegated to tier 2 in test cricket imo along with Australia where we'd dominate the division by playing thangarasu natrajan every game..

People trashing Jaddu in the match thread. Here you ****ing go. This is Jaddu. No rough, no purchase, but when he does get it, it's done.

If we can nick off Root before lunch it would be a huge boost

Such an Indian supporters gambhir.

India apparently played 71 false shots yesterday and lost 10 wickets in that. England had 34 false shots but did not lose a single wicket. That invisible momentum at play again, I guess.
EDIT - Should add its according to crapinfo, so take it with a grain of salt, cricviz might have tracked it differently, but it is the best we have to go by, for now.

India winning the session but 50-2 is not a disaster anyway. Can cash in against the tired bowlers later in the day and set up the innings win.
