After a summer of toil, bowlers finally found some luck yesterday on a helpful pitch at the Oval. After a series where bat has dominated ball, there was swing, seam and lbws all at play on an eventful day. It seems the tables have finally turned, and not before time.
Read the full piece here.
Get ready for today with a rundown of all the action from yesterday.
The India bowler has played every game of this series, and has never been far from the centre of the action. Plenty of brilliant moments, topped off by a brilliant spell yesterday to get his team right back in the game.
Neil Manthorp and talkSPORT's cricket editor Jon Norman discuss a manic day at the Oval.
The young opener led the Indian fightback with bat late on Friday evening, making a handsome half-century to put his team in a great position. He rode his luck a little, having been dropped a couple of times.
Jarrod Kimber is joined by the former New Zealand captain Jeremy Coney to look back on the events on day two of the final Test.
A very good morning from the Oval where summer seems to have returned. It's a balmy 19C -- the sun is out and there's blue sky overhead, and, most importantly there is no rain forecast.
Things are very evenly poised on the pitch after an eventful day yesterday. There's still a bit of life in the pitch which continues to have a tinge of green, but it should be a bit easier to bat today. In India will be intending to bat all day and get themselves a substantial lead.
Join me throughout the day for all the action on and off the pitch.
