11:46am James Anderson is ready. Ninety-nine wickets at Lord's, 549 overall. If that's daunting, Vijay will look upwards and see clouds, and behind to see four slips. Here we go.

Faiq: "Chris Woakes innings was similar to Broads innings against Pakistan in 2010. "

Vishnu Udayan: "First time in the year, I guess, Indians have failed to pick up ten wickets of an innings. "

Dean: "More than doubled his previous test best in that innings Chris Woakes and far from the easiest circumstances, well played sir."

11:37am England have declared. Woakes walks off to a big ovation, and he makes sure to acknowledge every corner of the ground as he leads the players off. He knows what he's done, they know what he's done. This is the start of England's push for 2-0. India have to make 289 to keep the game alive.

Mohammed Shami to Curran, SIX, whack! Remarkable hit! it's a bouncer, it's not quite lifting off, and it's an awkward pace for Curran. But he's in position for the hook and, for the love of batting, he will play it. Swats it far over the deep fielder
