Root has lost faith in Bess. He's going to have to do a bit more bowling himself.
India 117-5. England fighting back. Big couple of hours.

On a knife edge,batting last won’t be easy
For 6 now with Root taking the last wicket
Bess might be out of favour but for the rest of his career he's not likely to find a spinners wicket better than this one.
England fighting back but the seamer heavy team selection may still go against them.
Rooooooooot !!
Every run valuable in this game
Have to bat positively
Whats happened?? Popped out for a few minutes and Roots got 4 wickets.
Whatever deficit it is we need to knock them off with no losses.
Plenty of time left in this game to plod along putting the pressure on the bowlers.
No reverse sweeps please or trying to get the ball into the car park.
A couple of "Boycott" performances needed when we bat.
Be good if we can stick around. Real tough to know the best plan whether to block or blast.
