3.59pm: Right, then. Where were we? Time enough in the day for India to begin their chase, that's where. Probably 4-5 overs, once they get back out there. This has been India's day - they began it 134 runs behind with three wickets standing, and now have a target below 200 to take the spoils - but you'd imagine those runs will take some getting on a capricious Ranchi deck. England, by the way, lost 5 for 25 in 21 overs after tea, as the air went slowly out of their balloon. Can Ben Stokes rally his troops, and particular his young spin attack, to keep the series alive? We'll start to get some answers shortly

In walks James Anderson. Just a slip and short leg still

Sonny, you might want to mute your mentions

"Can't help but feel this is a really flawed plan for India," muses Sonny. "Foakes has one of the best defences in the England side and almost endless patience. Looking for a magic ball and giving one ball at Bashir while they creep closer to 200 is creating a rod for their own backs"

Slip and short leg for Ashwin to Foakes

"Foakes is trying to keep the bazball for tomorrow morning," suggests Nit

Four men around the bat now

Has the pitch gone to sleep again? Do India not fancy batting tonight? Who knows, this Test has been hard to fathom from the outset

Kuldeep into a 15th over. India slowing things down - and Kumar Dharmasena is telling them to get on with it

Here's Richard, with his hammer and nails: "'Foakes is backing his method'… the essence of Bazball: be who you are. And if you aren't sure who you are, here's the opportunity to find out..."

"Are we missing Bumrah's yorkers here?" Whatever we're doing, in all walks of life, we're always missing Bumrah's yorkers, Milind

Lots of tinkering with the field. Still very spread out, no slip now

"Should Foakes not try to hit and get a few runs - sooner or later he or Bashir is going to get a ball with their name on it?" Foakes is backing his method here, Andy Jackson. Worked for him in the first innings

Movement behind the arm causes Foakes to pull away

Slip, short leg and silly point

"@ Alan, Bazball goes for a sleep when it is badly needed. Threatens more than it delivers. Still, match not over though... anything above 200 gives England a chance." You said it, Muthukumaran Su. Bazball seems to be going okay in India to me

Kuldeep continues. England have scored just a single off each of the last seven overs

Evening all. So much for Bazball, more like Zzzzball - amirite?? Joking aside, this is currently a bit of a stalemate, though every run (and every minute longer for the pitch to potentially deteriorate) will stiffen India's challenge when we get to the fourth innings
