Fascinating Anderson interview

11.30am

It’s raining again

11.10am

Only 11 balls bowled before the rain arrived, but one of them was Rishabh Pant charging down the wicket and driving James Anderson wide of mid-off for four. So frustrating this contest hasn’t been allowed to take off.

From Sampath Bandarupalli

James Anderson’s 14th over:
First ball – 2:28 PM local time (Day 2, Session 2)
Second ball – 4:15 PM local time (Day 2, Session 3)
Third and Fourth balls – 4:59 to 5:01 PM local time (Day 2, Session 3)
Fifth and Sixth balls – 11:00 to 11:01 AM local time (Day 3, Session 1)

First time an over was spread across three different sessions. (Where BBB is available)

We are starting on time

10.45am

It rained in the morning, but the weather looks good for now. Play will begin on time, 11am. Another lovely session in store. James Anderson, you’d think, has the bit between his teeth, but India know they are just 58 behind and have six wickets in hand. The forecast for the rest of the day is a mixed bag. Don’t think we will get a whole day’s play in, but looking at the conditions, how much time do we really need for a result?
