For all the joy and entertainment of seeing Joe Root and James Anderson put on a record last-wicket stand for England, it will probably be India who finish the first Test in better shape.
The incredible 198-run partnership and two late wickets have given England an outside chance of victory, but the more likely scenario is that their bowlers are going to have to get through a lot of overs on Sunday with the Lord's Test just round the corner.
England should go hard at India until lunch, but if they haven't taken three or four wickets by then they will have to seriously consider how they approach the rest of the day.
India are likely to want to bat for most of the day, before potentially having a pop at Alastair Cook in the final session.
Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

Plunkett might miss Lord's and they bring Chris Jordan in. They might save Plunkett for the third and fourth Tests at the Ageas Bowl and Old Trafford."[/color][color=rgb(0, 0, 0)][/t]
