As it happened: England vs India, 5th Test, Edgbaston, Day 2

That is it for day two with Mohammed Shami taking out nightwatchman Jack Leach before stumps. We leave you with this teaser from our report.

"India had the best of a stop-start day, adding 78 with their last three standing wickets and then taking four England wickets by the time they scored 78. On a day that only 39 overs were possible because of rain, India placed one hand firmly on the Pataudi Trophy, to secure which they needed merely a draw.

After Ravindra Jadeja completed his third Test century, India’s first out-and-out fast-bowler captain (Kapil Dev was an allrounder), Jasprit Bumrah broke a record held by Brian Lara even before he came on to bowl, scoring 29 in a 35-run over from Stuart Broad, both a world record for most runs by a batter in an over and the most expensive over in Test cricket.

After adding 41 for the last wicket with Mohammed Siraj, Bumrah went on to take three wickets in his first spell, broken by rain breaks that helped him bowl seven overs on the trot. With India leading by 332 runs and only five England wickets standing at the end of two days, this Test was fast headed towards a territory from where only one team can win."

The first change post the rain break. Mohammed Siraj vs Joe Root has been all about trying to late-cut Siraj, who has been cramping Root up. Eventually a wobble-seam ball nips back in to kiss the bottom edge on the way through to Rishabh Pant. This has been excellent bowling as a unit to set this wicket up. Runs dried up, and no let-up by the change bowler. England 78 for 4.

Only 18 runs in the last 6.5 overs after the rain interruption. Mohammed Shami has been all over Joe Root, and Jonny Bairstow is 10 off 32 after having scored all those runs at better than a run a ball against New Zealand. The help from the pitch is not extravagant but Jasprit Bumrah and Shami have been spot on with their lengths and pace. England 78 for 3.

Good news, folks. Play is set to resume at 6pm, and the forecast has cleared out. One more nightmarish hour for England batters where Bumrah can start afresh. Something India faced with Anderson yesterday.

Well they are not quite happy with the outfield just yet. So there will be another inspection at 5.25pm, which is 9.55pm in India.

Tea has come and gone, and the covers are coming off. An inspection is scheduled for 5pm, which is 9.30pm India time.

Sadly it is still raining but happily it is lighter. Sensibly they have taken early tea, and whenever we get on we will have just one session of play left.

Three little periods of play, and England have lost a wicket in each of them. Neither of them an unplayable delivery. Two loose shots, one covering the angle from round the wicket well. England 60 for 3 in 15.1 overs, and we are off.

The captain has taken himself off after seven overs spread over essentially three spells because of the rain. His figures 7-0-30-3. His replacement is Mohammed Siraj.

it's a nightmare for batters trying to play out tough bowling in tough conditions. The bowler bowls a no-ball, which is called belatedly, and you have to face up again when you are looking forward to the other end. Alex Lees has already fallen to that extra ball in this innings. Now Ollie Pope has a loose drive at a wide length ball, seventh of Bumrah's sixth over, and he edges it to third slip. It's 44for 3 in 11 overs now.

Play to resume at 3.15pm, which is 7.45pm in India. Rescheduled hours of play 3.15pm to 5pm, then 5.20pm to 6.30pm. Twenty-six overs lost so far. Extra half an hour to be added.

The rain has stopped 15 minutes before my phone app said it would. We now have an official inspection at 2.45pm, which is 7.15pm India time. In the mean while here is some food for thought from Dale Steyn after Jasprit Bumrah again got a wicket on the extra ball when the batter was hardly able to keep six balls out and was waiting for the end of the over. Remember it is not an endorsement.

Also it is an old tweet.

There's more rain around, and the umpires are taking the players off. India not happy with having to go off. This is a great time to bowl but it is what it is. Had this break happened in a half hour, India would have welcomed it because Bumrah could have come back and bowled another full spell immediately. England 31 for 2 in 6.3 overs.

It is a beauty from Bumrah. On a length, angling in, and then moving away after pitching. Root has to cover for the angle. Lucky not to edge it. Bumrah is in great rhythm having warmed his engine during the warm-up game.

Jasprit Bumrah struck with the last ball before the lunch break, and then he has Zak Crawley driving at a wide ball first ball he delivers after the break. Caught in the slips because the new ball is moving, and he is giving it the best chance to swing and not banging it in with no slips. England 27 for 2.

The rain is gone, and we will resume play at 1.15pm, which is 5.45pm in India. New session timings are as follows:

Middle session: 1.5pm to 3.55pm 2nd session

Evening session: 4.15pm to 6.30pm with play allowed to go on till 7pm

No overs lost because of the rain.

He is clearly not satisfied with breaking Brian Lara's record for the most runs in a Test over. He has bowled a beauty to seam past the inside edge of Alex Lees to beat him so comprehensively he is lbw first and then bowled. The scoreboard, though, records it as bowled. And that proves to be the last ball before rain sends us off. England 16 for 1 in three overs.

And an early lunch has been taken

before we move into the England innings, here is a reminder from Nagraj Gollapudi, who I suspect might be writing something longer and meatier on him, on the special player that Ravindra Jadeja is.

"We are used to him brandishing the bat like a sword to celebrate. But did you notice the second part of Jadeja’s celebrations today upon reaching his century? Jadeja stood mid-pitch, both arms aloft, one holding a helmet, the other his bat, looking across the ground, as if to suggest: ladies and gents, did you expect anything less from me?

A high-quality innings where Jadeja showed composure, heart, patience, courage to challenge England then frustrate them and eventually leave them helpless. Apart from this being his first century overseas, what will make Jadeja more happy is the fact that he played the situation smartly on the first day, took a lot of strike in the partnership with Pant, allowing the latter to play with more freedom, and then used calculated aggression to keep England on the back foot having walked in at 98 for 5.

Numbers for a No. 7 will already say that, but Jadeja has proved once again he is the Mr Dependable of the Indian lower order."

Mohammed Siraj has a slash at James Anderson, giving him his 32nd five-for and 656th wicket. But India have got a daunting total of 416 on the board, adding 78 for 3 this morning. That's 318 runs after they lost five wickets for 98.

This is Lord's all over again. England have completely lost the plot and not for the first time in this series. With a three-over-old ball, Stuart Broad decides he just wants to bounce Jasprit Bumrah out, but neither he nor the pitch has that kind of pace. Bumrah, with more than 375 on the board already, swings merrily. Throw in a wide and a no-ball too. We now have the most expensive over in Test cricket. To a No. 10. Who said India finally has a bowler captain again?

A superb century that just reiterated what Daniel Norcross used to say about him: Ravindra Jadeja should be the first name on an India Test XI never mind the conditions. He bats like a proper Test batter in his latest avatar, he is a terror on turning tracks, and he does an effective holding job on green seamers. He was the biggest difference between India who lost in Adelaide and then won the series, he was the missing piece in South Africa, and he has scored 104 here from 98 for 5. Eventually after framing strike he tries a slog off James Anderson is bowled to become the ninth wicket down at the score their former captain and current board president wanted in his tweet overnight.

In the last over with the old ball, Stuart Broad produced the wicket of Mohammed Shami, a ramp straight to a fine third man, and he could have had Jasprit Bumrah too but Zak Crawley misjudged the top edge at fine leg and ends up diving for it and having to throw the ball in before touching the ropes. It looks spectacular and draws an applause but it is the third life Crawley has given an India batter.

Ravindra Jadeja was subdued for most of the partnership with Rishabh Pant, but this morning he has pulled out a few streaky shots after a solid start. One edge flew over the slips, another was dropped by Joe Root at first slip largely because second slip Zak Crawley blind-sighted him without getting close to the ball, and the third one was a proper cut shot to bring up his hundred. India 371 for 7. One over to go to the new ball.

It's from the last year but I remember Joe Root admitting he let things slip when they just went short at Shami and Bumrah, largely because Bumrah had rattled Anderson with bouncers. It cost them 89 runs, and eventually the Test. If they let emotions get the better of them there, I am not sure what is making them bowl short at Shami here with no slip in place but a strong field square and behind square on the leg side. It might be a combination of this quickly-softening set Duke's balls, a pitch with not much movement and India's onslaught yesterday, but whatever it is, it is not working. They have not managed to trouble Shami, who has also hit two boundaries off short balls.

He has clearly chosen the wrong picture to "spit" the difference with. I raise you this:

Rishabh Pant's was an audacious, high-risk innings. It shows in how he was not in control of 27 balls out of the 111 he faced. But against Test bowling of high quality you have to take risks to score briskly. But here is the thing: of the 27 shots Pant was not in control of, 9 were defensive shots. To him the defensive shot is a risk. This is the kind of self-awareness you need at Test level.

Play has started on time by the way but there is a bit of a drizzle around. Ben Stokes are Matt Potts are the first bowlers.
