India 1st inns: 304-5 (112 ovs) vs Eng | Scorecard

England introduce spin for the first time on the second day with part-timer Moeen Ali coming in for another spell.

Dhoni tries to reverse sweep the first ball but fails to connect and gets two leg byes in the process. He gets an outside edge off the third ball which flies through the thirdman region for two more runs.

England's most experienced bowler Anderson finally provides the breakthrough for the hosts.

Vijay is beaten by the incoming delivery and is given out leg before wicket by umpire Bruce Oxenford even though he is struck high on the thighpads.

Vijay walks visibly dejected after a good innings of 146 from 361 balls, hitting 25 fours and a six. Replays confirm that the ball would have gone over the stumps comfortably but in the absence of DRS the Indians can't complain and after all it is their own choice.

Vijay along with Dhoni build India's total as they put on 126 runs for the fifth wicket and keep them on course for a total well in excess of 400.
