    The only way England can win this game is by matching India's first-innings score in their second innings and then setting them 200 to win. That is the mentality that England's batters will have to have in the changing room.

    More from England batting coach Marcus Trescothick...

    Talk in the dressing room? "I don't think we'll study what they do too much, we're a very unique side in how we go about things. We don't get too down when we have bad days but we don't get too high when we have good ones. You've got to stay level, be consistent and recognise the things that you can improve.

    "There are ways we can do better and we'll look to do that tomorrow. It moved around a lot more than we expected it to, with the amount of swing, when we started this morning. But our challenge now will be that the ball is 30 overs old so hopefully there will be some dew around in the morning when it's colder, and that may be able to help us."

    Still believe you can win? "Of course, you never look at a game like you're dead and buried. There will be some guys who can take a look at themselves and think, right, I can do better today so hopefully we can put that right."

    England batting coach Marcus Trescothick on TNT Sports: "Yeah, a challenging day. We had some good moments - we batted well up until lunch when the ball was swinging around and nipped around more than we expected it to.

    "Zak Crawley batted very well to get his score but we just didn't get enough partnerships together in the middle, to put the total on the board. Winning the toss was important for us, but it is what it is - we've got to come back better tomorrow."

    In case you're just checking in for the first time today. Here's what you've missed:

    • England won the toss and Ben Stokes opted to bat
    • Openers Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett shared 64 for the first wicket, before the latter skewed Kuldeep Yadav to Shubman Gill in the covers
    • Ollie Pope was out on the stroke of lunch, looking to advance down the pitch to Kuldeep, to leave England 100-2
    • Joe Root and Crawley shared 37 before the latter was bowled by a beauty from Kuldeep for 79
    • From there England's crumbled with Root, Jonny Bairstow and Ben Stokes out in an 12-ball spell without the tourists adding a single run. That left them 175-6
    • They were eventually bowled our for 218 with Kuldeep taking 5-72 and Ravichandran Ashwin 4-51
    • Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rohit Sharma then both made half-centuries as India closed on 135-1, trailing by just 83

    England have sent Marcus Trescothick out to do the close of play media.

    He says it was a "challenging day".

    Full quotes shortly.

    The bottom line is that England had too many starts in their top five without anyone going on and making a match-changing score.

    Zak Crawley played beautifully again and he'll be frustrated that throughout the series he's been England's best batsman by quite some way in terms of consistency and style but without making a game-changing contribution.

    We all know that in India first-innings runs are key.

    England looked in a great position and were well set. They got through the opening barrage from Jasprit Bumrah, who was making the ball talk.

    It felt like there was an opportunity and Ben Duckett tried to take it and put pressure on the India spinners but skewed that catch. The wheels then started turning for India.

    The India spinners just had control of the proceedings.

    If you'd said to me at 100-1, when England were about to take lunch, that this would be the situation four hours later I wouldn't have believed it.

    There has been big moments in this series where England have lost an hour where they've lost the game. That hour where they lost five wickets for eight runs is going to cost them.

    India are miles ahead.

    I have a feeling India may come out and try and "Bazball" this tomorrow, so there may be opportunities for some early wickets.

    Stick with us, we'll have reaction from the England camp shortly.

    Will be interesting to see what they say.

    Ind 135-1

    A brilliant day for India. A difficult one for England.

    At 100-1 and 137-2 the tourists shouldn't have been bowled out for 218. But, they were thanks to the brilliance of spinners Kuldeep Yadav and Ravichandran Ashwin.

    India are 135-1 in reply, trailing by just 83. They'll be hopeful of building a huge lead on day two.

    Shoaib Bashir is done for the day.

    The 20-year-old has 1-64 from his 11 overs.

    Two more runs chipped off India's deficit.

    This has been a dream day for Rohit Sharma's side after losing the toss.

    A maiden from Shaoib Bashir.

    Bashir undoubtedly has raw ability, and with the grit and aggression he showed in staring down Jaiswal I think he'll go far in this game.

    Two more singles.

    England haven't really created any chances, bar the wicket.

    Shubman Gill is just going to enjoy himself I think.

    He gets down on one knee and slog-sweeps for six.

    He's not even remotely fussed that a couple of fielders are there in case he doesn't connect properly.

    A tickle round the corner for a single brings up another half-century for Rohit Sharma.

    It comes up off 77 balls and has been a very good innings to put his side completely in control.

    Blimey we鈥檙e a fickle bunch! Our bowling attack is spearheaded by debutants that aren鈥檛 even first choice at their counties, meanwhile Axar Patel, averaging 17 in Test cricket, can鈥檛 get a sniff for India. 4-1 is a realistic reflection of the gulf between the two teams in these conditions. Let鈥檚 not toss all the toys out the pram just yet.
