  1. Eng 166-9

    Sophie Ecclestone continues to defy India.

    A nice punch through the covers for four takes her to 34.

    It’s difficult to say who’s the worst test team between the men and women. Both pretty dismal at the moment.

    Kenneth, York

  3. Eng 162-9

    Almost a catch for Richa Ghosh at silly point as Lauren Filer prods forwards to Sree Charani.

    It's just short though.

  4. How's stat?!

    Deepti Sharma has been relentless with her lines throughout the match. She has attacked the stumps 56% of the time - the most by any bowler in this match.

  5. Not out

    It's just clipping leg stump, but the call stays as not out.

    On we go.

  6. Eng 159-9

    Missing leg?

  7. Player review

    Eng 159-9

    Sree Charani is pleading with umpire Anna Harris for an lbw against Sophie Ecclestone, but it's not given.

    India review.

  8. Eng 159-9

    How has that missed?

    Deepti Sharma has her hands on her head as Lauren Filer plays inside the line and it somehow evades off stump.

    Twice in a matter of weeks decisive Test matches seem to have become a retirement procession rather than an attempt to win a match. Not good enough from both the men's and women's game.

    Bowled! Through the gate, the turn does it.

    Deepti Sharma is accelerating things here at Lord's.

    WICKET

    Bell b Deepti 0 (Eng 159-9)

    England's Lauren Bell gets bowled out by India's Deepti SharmaReuters

    Too good from Deepti Sharma.

    Flighted outside off stump and it spins back between Lauren Bell's bat and pad.

    The end is nigh.

    The ball India didn't review was projected to hit the leg stump. Essentially, India missed a chance for an LBW and ended up getting Issy Wong's wicket on the very next delivery, bowled.

    The Indian spin unit is putting on an absolute clinic at the Home of Cricket. They have effectively spun an inescapable web around the English batters, backing up their world-class batting prowess.

  14. Eng 158-8

    Sneh Rana is back, from the Nursery End.

    Sophie Ecclestone takes a single out to a sweeper on the cover boundary before Lauren Bell unconvincingly defends the next five deliveries.

    Ex-England bowler on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    That's Deepti Sharma for you, she has all the tools.

    Deepti is the better bowler out of her and Rana, she has more variations in pace, just sliding it through that time a little bit quicker. A really good bowling change.

  16. Steven Finn
    Former England fast bowler on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    Bowled! Issy Wong's defences are breached.

    India's relentless bowling has made the breakthrough, they've been so disciplined in this Test.

  17. wicket

    WICKET

    Wong b Deepti 1 (Eng 157-8)

    That one is out, and in emphatic style.

    Deepti Sharma bowls this one a bit quicker and it's straight through Issy Wong's defences.

    She goes for one and India are just two wickets away.

  18. Eng 157-7

    Harmanpreet Kaur continues to rotate her bowlers.

    Deepti Sharma is introduced and thinks she's pinned Issy Wong lbw, but the umpire is unmoved and Kaur opts against a review.

  19. Katherine Sciver-Brunt
    Ex-England bowler on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    Issy Wong has probably never been in this situation in her life, she's learning. It's like she's in the nets and she has no senior batter at the other end.

    How often have we seen Sophie Ecclestone in this situation?

  20. Eng 156-7

    Sree Charani replaces Kranti Gaud as India turn to spin from both ends.

    Issy Wong is still in her bunker and plays out a maiden.
