I reckon we won't need him if push comes to shove. Not sure about OT record.

Top, top performance from England - really pleased for Cook and Moores in particular after all the pressure of the last few weeks.
Batting looked very strong, albeit with the Indians missing Ishant. Buttler looked solid behind the stumps and has the ability to take the game away from opponents with the bat. Root was tremendous (and plays with a smile on his gob which is always good to see), Cook back into the runs and Bell solid despite the bruised hand.
The concern remains with the bowling. Moeen did brilliantly, and has probably cemented his place for a while. However, we'll knack Jimmy and Broad bowling them for 25+ overs a day because the likes of Jordan (clearly out of sorts) and Woakes (not sure he is Test class notwithstanding the 1st Class stats).
Room for improvement, but I'm really looking forward to the next couple of tests!

Indians claim to have footage of the shove, I suspect Jimmy won't be involved in the last 2 games.
At least we will have a rested Plunkett back to replace Jordan, Woakes or Jimmy
Just so you lads know in advance, I'm off to OT on the Saturday
If you aren't there, like über me, no commenting
Thanks

We have a good record there.
Is it as cut and dry as seeing any sort of shove? Or do they look at the force used etc?

Trent Bridge is tremendous. Old Trafford is poor.
Last week they were saying the Indians thought it was a closed case.

Hadn't seen it, just reporting that some had been found. I suppose we'll find out tomorrow.
New OT is much much better.
