Shami in the midst of a wonderful spell as he beats Cook with that moves away late, going past the edge of the left-hander, who pokes away from his body.
Jadeja is taken off as Bumrah comes in from the other end. He also does well to get the ball to nip away and beat left-hander Moeen Ali.

India's pacers are bowling a superb spell but England are managing to keep their wickets against the new ball.
Once the ball gets a bit old, it becomes much easier to bat and India will look to pick up a few more wickets in this session and keep themselves in the contest.

Kohli continues to juggle his bowlers around as Jadeja comes back after a short burst from Bumrah.
