At least. With 2 days to get it England can take all the time in the world.

But then again Bazball so they probably have enough

[spud_gun]

Highest successful run chase at the Oval in the last century is 253

Madness that we're sitting here thinking India need a minimum of 350 and even then they might not be safe

[spud_gun]

374 for England to win the test and the series

Should be a thriller

[Sus]

Will be a great Sunday of cricket for those lucky enough to be able to go

[Sus]

Think this will end 2-2 to be honest, and England getting knocked over for 250-275

[ChesterDave]

Not sure how useful highest chases are given there are 2 full days left. Presumably chases are typically less than 4 or 5 sessions

[ChesterDave]

Under 100 needed kow, 7 wickets and 4+ sessions left. England's to lose from here

[spud_gun]

Really impressive stuff from England today

Should i say it isn't surprising?

[Yozza]

It’s all up in the air now…

If these England fielders could catch it’d all be over

[Buzzo]

Quite tense out there since Root went.

Ball swinging 4 wickets (maybe three depending on Woakes) required for India. 35 runs required for England.

[spud_gun]

India left it too late. They needed Root gone with England needing 100 or so

Root is such a masterful cricketer. A joy to watch.

[Buzzo]

Siraj dropping Brook was totally pivotal today.

Players have gone off for bad light. Another wicket and it will get very interesting, runs have completely dried up.

[Buzzo]

The weather not respecting the tension in the game at all. Absolutely pissing down at the Oval.

[Buzzo]

What a shame the series will end like this.

The tension was full on before they went off. 2 new relatively rookie batsmen and a fired up Indian attack. Runs hard to come by and the crowd engaged.

The break will 100% suit England.

Huge misjudgement carrying that over.
