93.6

Panesar to Gilchrist, no run, and Monty's arms come over in a greater flurry than usual, a quicker and flatter ball which is defended to leg

94.2

Flintoff to Gilchrist, no run, good ball angling into the left handed Gilchrist who shoulders arms

94.3

Flintoff to Gilchrist, FOUR, oof that was close, outside off - that nagging length which Flintoff seems to produce only to Gilchrist - and the batsman pushed at it, streakily so, and it flew past gully

94.4

Flintoff to Gilchrist, no run, pushed out into the covers

94.5

Flintoff to Gilchrist, no run, and he goes for an expansive pull but is rapped high on the pad. Flintoff appeals, but that's going miles over the top

94.6

Flintoff to Gilchrist, FOUR, cracking shot! Beautifully timed off the back foot, elegant even - just threaded the gap through the covers

96.3

Flintoff to Gilchrist, no run, oof, Gilchrist is trying to smack Flintoff all over the place. And why not? But he misses out here, trying to pull it and misses

96.4

Flintoff to Gilchrist, no run, a teasing line outside off and left alone

96.5

Flintoff to Gilchrist, no run, just a touch straighter this time forcing the defensive stroke from Gilchrist

96.6

Flintoff to Gilchrist, no run, and he leaves this outside off to end the over

98.1

Flintoff to Gilchrist, 2 runs, well worked off his hip and excellent running to pick up two

98.2

Flintoff to Gilchrist, no run, firmly punched off the back foot but he can't find the gap

98.3

Flintoff to Gilchrist, 1 run, short, Gilchrist goes for the pull and clangs it to a deep midwicket

99.1

Panesar to Gilchrist, FOUR, cor, he's given that some humpty and no little dumpty, using his feet and drilling it through extra cover. Bosh

99.2

Panesar to Gilchrist, 2 leg byes, he sweeps, misses - Monty and Jones roar an appeal but it's going down leg and they scamper a leg-bye

99.3

Panesar to Gilchrist, 2 runs, flicked off his legs down to a wide long-on, but there's no great power in that shot

99.4

Panesar to Gilchrist, no run

99.5

Panesar to Gilchrist, FOUR, A giggling Jenno here, as Willo kicks the leads out of his computer. Late cuts that to third man. And Will's back. The clown.

99.6

Panesar to Gilchrist, 1 run, I'm back. My ploy to avoid commentating any further failed spectacularly. Pulled to square leg for a single

100.1

Pietersen to Gilchrist, no run, ooh well bowled, on leg stump and he's squared up

100.2

Pietersen to Gilchrist, 2 runs, on leg stump and turned round the corner - neatly played but he's getting some good turn here Pietersen

100.3

Pietersen to Gilchrist, 1 run, what a cracker! Turning prodigiously on Gilchrist, squaring him up and the ball flies past slip

101.1

Mahmood to Gilchrist, FOUR, too straight, Gilchrist just pulls it around the corner - for four. He hardly seemed to touch that one, terrific timing

101.2

Mahmood to Gilchrist, no run, good comeback, straighter and fuller forcing Gilchrist to defend

101.3

Mahmood to Gilchrist, 3 runs, poor delivery on leg stump, timed beautifully through midwicket and Monty gives chase...sprinting like a recently released zebra from the zoo and makes excellent ground, diving and saving four

102.1

Pietersen to Gilchrist, FOUR, too straight and he sweeps this...my word, he's got hold of this, it's gone for four! Swept with huge power behind square

102.2

Pietersen to Gilchrist, no run, ah good comeback from Pietersen to pitch it a touch shorter, and Gilchrist is beaten by the spin

102.3

Pietersen to Gilchrist, 3 runs, outside off stump this time and it's swept in front of square this time. Cook gives chase and nearly makes a brilliant hash of it on the boundary, but fortunately Strauss was there to save his massive blushes

102.5

Pietersen to Gilchrist, no run, lovely ball just outside off, turning away from the left hander who pushes it into the off side. That doesn't sound right

102.6

Pietersen to Gilchrist, no run, "how. Was. That?" asks a furious Pietersen. Rudi can't even be bothered to shake his head

103.3

Mahmood to Gilchrist, no run, and he pulls out his iron, goes for a monstrous slog but misses and somehow doesn't edge it

103.4

Mahmood to Gilchrist, FOUR, well he definitely makes contact here; he's absolutely cream-bunned through midwicket. Smackingly crashing shot that. He's looking venomous here

103.5

Mahmood to Gilchrist, 1 run, pushed off his legs for a superb single

104.1

Panesar to Gilchrist, no run, ooh, reaches wide for that, well, wide one and he missed it

104.2

Panesar to Gilchrist, FOUR, wow! Love that one. He danced down the track and teed that straight past Panesar with a hockey shot of an aerial drive and a one-bounce four

104.3

Panesar to Gilchrist, no run, defended this time

104.4

Panesar to Gilchrist, 1 run, driven to mid-off

105.3

Mahmood to Gilchrist, 1 leg bye, the crowd stand... and then have to sit again, as Dar signals leg byes for that one which crashes into his stomach

106.1

Panesar to Gilchrist, no run, that's wide and Gilchrist reaches out, a long stride, to defend on the front foot

106.2

Panesar to Gilchrist, 2 runs, fifty this time and that's well-driven through cover. That fifty came up in just 40 deliveries, his fastest Test fifty and it's a blink-and-you've-missed-it one. Shame if you did...

106.3

Panesar to Gilchrist, SIX, shouts of 'Catch' which I hope can be heard from the man in Row V. He comes down the track, eyes bulging and straight drives that like a rocket. Seeing it like a football, hitting it like a golf ball. Spectators look out

106.4

Panesar to Gilchrist, SIX, Row ZZZ this time but there's no sleeping up there as Gilchrist sends that straight and miles. And miles. He's now got 95 Test sixes, I'm not sure that's allowed

106.5

Panesar to Gilchrist, FOUR, carnage - this time it's a swing over midwicket, not quite middled, so it didn't go for six... just the four. Almost like a tennis whip that one

106.6

Panesar to Gilchrist, SIX, unbelievable stuff. If you can't watch this, I instruct you to go and find some highlights later, oh my word, it's well worth it. This time that's another straight bosh and that's travelling. By bosh, don't misunderstand that it's a slog, it's not. It's just brilliant. Some in the crowd are bowing down

107.4

Mahmood to Gilchrist, 1 run, spears it up there, but Gilchrist manages to do something with it, specifically, easing it to mid-off

108.4

Hoggard to Gilchrist, SIX, ...not that it matters, though, because Gilchrist clears the field once more - murdering that miles with a huge hook. Hello, massive

108.5

Hoggard to Gilchrist, 1 run, fuller and it's dug out to long-on

109.1

Harmison to Gilchrist, FOUR, less huge, but still big - this time a mere flick over the man at square leg. Pure timing. What an eye

109.2

Harmison to Gilchrist, FOUR, slower ball, makes no difference, crashed away in front of midwicket. No matter who you support, you've got to feel a bit sorry for England. And you've got to admire Gilchrist - this is phenomenal stuff, it really is

109.3

Harmison to Gilchrist, no run, a dot ball. I'll say it again. A dot ball. Gilchrist rocks on to his back foot and shapes to late cut, misses and is furious with himself

109.4

Harmison to Gilchrist, FOUR, a pull shot this time - too easy

109.5

Harmison to Gilchrist, 2 runs, late cut down to Cook at third man, and he just makes the second

109.6

Harmison to Gilchrist, 1 run, a single to point and he keeps the strike.

110.1

Hoggard to Gilchrist, 1 run, takes the pace off that slightly and that's just the single out to long-on

110.5

Hoggard to Gilchrist, no run, a deliberately wide one, smart cricket from Hoggard. Gilly can still equal Richards's record

110.6

Hoggard to Gilchrist, 1 run, driven to cover and a diving Flintoff gets a hand on it, so Gilchrist's just missed out on the record

111.1

Harmison to Gilchrist, 2 runs, driven to long-on and that's the second-fast Test hundred. A quite brilliant effort, privilege to watch it. The balcony are standing, the crowd are standing - and bowing. Great stuff

111.2

Harmison to Gilchrist, 1 run, on leg and that's just helped into midwicket

111.6

Harmison to Gilchrist, 1 run, worked off the back foot to point and that's the declaration
