England are facing their first series defeat on home soil in six years as they resume on 326-9, still 338 runs behind India

The resistance of Monty Panesar and Chris Tremlett is brief - Anil Kumble traps Panesar lbw and England are 345 all out

It is Kumble's 564th Test victim and he overtakes Australia's Glenn McGrath to move to third on the wicket-taking list

India do not enforce the follow-on and lose an early wicket - James Anderson traps Wasim Jaffer lbw to leave them 10-1

Tremlett then squares up Dinesh Karthik and Paul Collingwood takes a sharp chance at slip to reduce India to 10-2

And Sachin Tendulkar's final Test innings in England is also brief - the Little Master is removed by Anderson for one

Rain halts England's progress though and the players troop off for an early lunch with India 31-3 - a lead of 354

Sourav Ganguly presses on after lunch with a fine array of shots through the offside as India move past 50-3

Ganguly contributes 55 in a partnership of 65 with Rahul Dravid before edging Collingwood to Andrew Strauss at slip

Collingwood and Strauss combine again to oust Dravid who departs for the slowest 12 in Test history with India 89-5

But Mahendra Singh Dhoni and VVS Laxman guide India to 121-5 at tea to the delight of their many fans at The Oval

Dhoni rides his luck a little after tea and is dropped by Anderson as he and Laxman lift the run-rate

The wicketkeeper's quest for quick runs ends when he feathers a rising Tremlett delivery to Prior on 36

Laxman is joined by Anil Kumble and the pair push India on to 180-6, a lead of 499, before captain Dravid calls them in

Strauss and Alastair Cook set about chasing 500 to win and negotiate the remaining 20 overs to close on 56-0
