LUNCH - DAY 1

India 73-2 (27 ovs) vs Eng | Scorecard

At lunch on Day 1, India are 73 for two in 27 overs with Kohli on 20 from 19 balls and Pujara on 11 from 66 balls.

India would have been happy losing just two wickets in the session on a pitch which was so green and offered a lot of help to the bowlers throughout. Infact, England were guilty of wasting the new ball, bowling either too short or too wide and not making the Indian batsmen play enough.

Anderson was superb with the new ball, bowling a long first spell of one for 11 in eight overs which included six maidens. Plunkett got the wicket of Vijay for figures of one for 20 in seven overs, while Broad bowled six overs for 16 runs and Stokes five overs for 14 runs.
