311 First-innings lead for England at Old Trafford. Only twice did India concede a bigger lead despite scoring 300-plus while batting first in Tests - 415 against Sri Lanka in 1997 after scoring 537 for 8, and 334 also against Sri Lanka in 2009 after scoring 426.

England captain Ben Stokes will be "good to go" on day four of the fourth Test against India having suffered with cramp during the third day, says vice-captain Ollie Pope.

He's taken the most wickets in this series compared to any other that he's played in, he currently has 16.

Joe Root became the third highest run scorer in test cricket on Friday as he helped England reach 332-2, only 26 runs behind India.

Joe Root's masterful 150 took him up to second on the all-time Test run-scorers' list and gave England complete control over India at the end of day three of the fourth Test at Old Trafford.

After escaping a run-out chance on 22, Root's latest triumph was chanceless.
