00:00roots away he wants a couple he has to hurry
00:08clip and time beautifully
00:17very much a warm-up ball on that occasion
00:25in the gap and away to the boundary
00:32flashed hard and away to the boundary
00:55on the pitch now I've seen a few given
01:00like that I think that's leg side
01:03what do you know on the mission is not
01:07our pitching outside of there's a short
01:13ball that's one we've seen
01:17there's the one it just kicks a little
01:25bit real confusion there's a chance and
01:28it's missed by a mile route makes it
01:31back Pope turns around apologizes I think
01:40a lot has to do with the weather the
01:42tracks that India played on it's into
01:49position superbly well and guides it
01:52backward a square before G just change
02:02the approach there Joe route that is why
02:03it stands up nice and tall doesn't over
02:10hit it doesn't need to with the timing
02:12that he has half century month
02:17in the space of three deliveries he
02:23passes dravid now he passes callous a
02:27legend just keeps on growing it's only
02:31Ricky pointing such an tendulter ahead of
02:33him is asking a lot as well this is where
02:45you might just see England looking to
02:47shift gears
02:48yeah slight adjustments that's all it is
02:54from Joe route but slight adjustments
02:56the big results it's not the boundary but
02:59again up and down gets to
03:01this one squeezes off a thickish inside
03:08edge
03:08transfer cambodge here at
03:16that's another one that is scooted low
03:21that's the third I think that Siraj is
03:24bold from the Anderson end to went past
03:27Pope's and Siraj is bold
03:29Pope has found the gap here it's a lovely
03:34cover drive threaded it between a straight
03:37extra cover and mid off lovely boundary
03:46good enterprising batting
03:50pick of a bonus here the throws come in
03:52from mid on it's missed every
03:54everybody don't even know that there's
03:57some bottom
04:0150 for Ali Pope with one exception the
04:06running between the wickets between
04:08Pope and route beautifully driven down
04:12the ground over pitch
04:17the light will shot
04:23or pulled in the air
04:27good bit of fielding what poker found
04:31the gap for a moment but he collects to
04:33better line
04:39hope works in runs too brilliantly
04:43guided away
04:51little gap is going to bring route to
04:55Pope or route to access the leg side
04:59even that
05:03going to be missing leg and route pushes for
05:06two again and next to
05:08route or Pope
05:10the reverse sweeps out
05:12and that would be four
05:13beautifully timed
05:16guided behind point once again was looking for two
05:28but doesn't need to to get to another 50
05:32hope use his feet route correction
05:38maybe half a chance cordon bold but
05:42really need a little bit of luck will run
05:47out chance
05:47now the quick single
05:49bit of a wider line
05:54and that's one of Joe routes favorite shots
06:04there's that drift again
06:06hope finds the gap and will pick up another two
06:10327 for two
06:17reverse sweep
06:20from route
06:22boomers way behind
06:23on the offside so will push for three
06:26make it comfortably long chase for the fast bowler
06:30solid defense
06:33from Oli Pope
06:36looking at the umpire
06:37see if the bails go
06:38and they do
06:39that's lunch
06:41gently guided
06:48by route for a couple
06:50looks like it'll be spin
06:53opening the gap again
07:00well
07:06I think he should have done better there
07:08it was almost as though when he began to track that ball
07:11great catch
07:14and Pope is undone by that drift
07:17from Washington Sundar
07:19ignored for too long this morning
07:21given a go before the second new ball
07:23picks up Pope at slip
07:25yeah the drift and also
07:27something that Ricky Ponting and Dinesh Kartik spoke about
07:31at the cart this morning
07:33he'll just plant his foot off the spinner
07:36and then throw his hands at the ball
07:37so good bowling
07:40from Sundar
07:42he plants his foot
07:43not much answer to that
07:48as Root picks the length of the ball
07:50perfectly
07:51oh got him
07:54brilliant bowling
07:55from Washington Sundar
07:57he has done Harry Brook like a kipper
08:00there he came running down the pitch
08:01and he's drifted one past the outside edge
08:04Jarrell has done the rest
08:06yeah Harry Brook
08:08will look at his replay and think
08:11the outside edge was always the threat
08:14think of the last dismissal
08:15he'd already been beaten
08:17in front of Square on the offside
08:19gets one on to the outside edge
08:23Stokes deep into his crease
08:25ball runs away
08:26but not to the boundary
08:28sweat firmly in front of Square
08:35that wonderful sweep of the ball
08:38of course Root
08:39killed at this point
08:42big cry of weight on from Ben Stokes
08:49at the non-strikers end
08:50he just wanted to make sure it had beaten that man
08:52and it did with pace
08:53bowling to Stokes
08:55it's gone pretty fine
08:58and it's the harder ball
09:00it's going to go away quickly for four
09:01charges some power
09:08not a lot of grace but effective nonetheless
09:13the pressure being applied by the England captain
09:15yeah I think that was Ben Stokes knowing exactly where that ball was going to be
09:22we know it's not about records
09:28for England's greatest ever batter
09:30but it has been a day of records
09:32for Joe Root
09:34he moves to third on the list
09:36for the all-time run scorers in test match cricket
09:39he joins Kumar Sangakara
09:41with 38 test match hundreds
09:44and he continues his infatuation
09:47with this ground as well
09:49well played Joe Root
09:51well nicely played
09:57chase for the fielder
10:02the ball will win
10:03there you go
10:10number two on the list
10:12is Joe Root
10:13as he goes past the great Ricky Ponte
10:15and is now only behind
10:18the great man Sachin Tendulkar
10:21congratulations Joe Root
10:24magnificent
10:25second on the table
10:28129 out
10:29this crowd at the ground
10:33this very knowledgeable crowd here at Old Trafford
10:35all stand as one
10:36punch away for a single
10:43and another perfect session
10:47from England's point of view
10:50they've had two sessions
10:51107 in the first session of play
10:53101 in the second session
10:54for the loss of two
10:55he's on the charge
10:58and he's showing Stokes how to do it
11:01time it down the ground
11:03that's how you do it Skip
11:04he's nailed that one
11:10he's been waiting
11:11to find the middle of the bat
11:13he's certainly done that then
11:1450
11:20to the England captain
11:22who is having a terrific summer
11:24leading wicket taker at the moment
11:27in the series
11:27with the ball gradually
11:29finding some form
11:30goes for the reverse hit this time
11:35he's flat on his face
11:36this Stokes
11:37because he's slightly misread the line of the ball
11:40short ball thumped away
11:47will beat the diving Siraj
11:48it is very very difficult for India right now
11:52England
11:53actually a couple of years ago
11:55smashed
11:57he's really hammered that
11:59away in front of square
12:00he's on the ball
12:04this is not good
12:06because Ben Stokes
12:08is going to
12:09retire hurt
12:10so it is absolutely fingers crossed
12:16for England and him
12:18that
12:18that is just cramped
12:20that he can't shake
12:21as opposed to any sort of reoccurrence
12:23for those
12:24hamshank issues
12:25we just go back to that split screen
12:31Joe Root goes to 150
12:34150 not out
12:36the Indian players
12:37beautifully bowled
12:39quick hands from the keeper
12:41and I think Joe Root has to go
12:43that is wonderful bowling
12:44brilliant glove work
12:45now he's got cramped
12:46well that is beautifully bowled
12:49lovely shot from Liam Dawson
12:54the field is up
12:55and he is going to try
12:58I think
12:58and either push the field back
13:00or just take advantage
13:02of that factor
13:03Smith with the footwork
13:08and then just opens up
13:10the blade of the bat
13:10to find the boundary
13:12through the offside
13:13was there a little nick
13:19and did it carry
13:20and that's the questions
13:22I think the first question
13:24has been answered
13:25I think there certainly was
13:26the second one
13:27has also been answered
13:28because it looks as if
13:29Jamie Smith
13:30is walking off
13:31nice and slow
13:34would like to see the alt-right first
13:38the position was absolutely spot on
13:47hit the ball at the top of the rise
13:49Siraj through the defences of Wokes
13:56and India have their seventh
13:59this ball 24 hours before this
14:04this one keeping a little low
14:05getting the toe end of the bat
14:07we've seen this variable bounce
14:10from the Anderson end
14:12by 170
14:13and Stokes makes his way out to the centre
14:16yeah if you are just joining us
14:27and you're a bit confused
14:28why Ben Stokes is coming out
14:29at number nine
14:30he played beautifully for 66
14:32but he was really struggling
14:34with cramps
14:35and had to retire
14:36lovely cover drive
14:42Siraj looked a bit stiff
14:44for extra cover
14:45Gijswold doesn't
14:47and he does well
14:48another short ball
14:56and if that man had been in 10
14:59it would have gone to him
15:00thank you
15:01thank you
15:02thank you
15:03thank you
