Not exaggerating even slightly, I cannot see England winning this.
India are half-way to level with two wickets down. Kohli and Pujara well set. England will lose if they have to chase 150.
Logging on to all the betting apps to snap up the sweet 19/1 on offer. Absolutely serious about this.
Just saying if England pull this off, it will be the greatest comeback win in the history of Headingly Tests.
I'M SO MAD I CAN'T EVEN SPELL CRICKET GROUNDS PROPERLY
Honestly though, where are these next eight wickets coming from? India will have that 150 lead by close tomorrow, then it's theirs to lose. That's just by far the most likely course of events, isn't it?

Autumnal day at Northern, where the hosts can wrap up the @lpoolcomp title with a win over New Brighton. The visitors have been asked to bat and are 15/0 from 4 overs after a nick through the slips by Armand Rabot off Ryan Maddock.
Sorry - Daniel Shillinglaw hit the four; Rabot is the other batter. I’d hate to get complaints.
21/0 from 6 overs, positive start from the visitors. Both Maddock and Tom Sephton have beaten the edge a few times but the batters haven’t been bogged down.

Liverpool v Birkenhead Park today, in Division One. Hosts looking to consolidate at the end of an up-and-down season; visitors aiming for the Prem.
Liverpool are 5/0 in the third over. Very attacking field for Satyajeet Bachhav, the division’s leading wicket taker.
Seam from Alex Baker from the River End; Steve Rimmer and Adam Pickering the batters.

Not one, not two, not four, but THREE freshly minted cricket pieces for you to read while you watch Ollie Pope push a bit too hard at good length balls on fourth stump...
Focusing on the Division One promotion race, which is bubbling nicely. First, here's @RainfordCC's @john_dotters10 on the way his side have proved themselves in tight situations so far this season liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/cricket/…
Second, here's @bpcc1846 captain Tom Foster on the attacking approach which has made his team a successful oddity this year liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/cricket/…

Early breakthrough for Bootle as S&B bat first… JJ Fielding was batting but is no longer, after Will Purser trimmed his bails. 4/1 after 4 overs.
Purser is bowling wicket to wicket, as he does, while Toby Lester from the other end is getting a decent amount of bounce. Tight start from the defending champions; Isaac Lea and Jack Carney at the crease for the hosts.
Lester gives Carney a bit of width and gets carved for two fours. Plenty of catchers waiting for the edge though.

I’m at Sefton Park, where after a spot of rain, Wallasey are about to begin batting, having won the toss. Delighted to be back doing this after a few weeks of isolation/holidays. No the football season hasn’t started and there isn’t a Test match on.
After a quiet start, Jamie Crawley deposits Huzaifa Zubair through mid-off for two fours. Then he’s bowled off a no-ball. Agonising for Park, who need early wickets. 11/0 from 3 overs.
Bit of #mizzle around

Does this look like DIY? Do you see a flat pack bookshelf or an unfitted dishwasher? Neither do I. I see Northern batting against Formby in the ⁦@lpoolcomp⁩.
The visitors have made a couple of breakthroughs through Sam Ellis, who is thundering in from this end. Chris Laker and Andrew Clarke tasked with rebuilding for the hosts. 34/2.
Ollie Sutton, from the far end, causing a few problems for Clarke.
