TEA - DAY 1
England 196-2 (62 ovs) vs India | Scorecard
This has been a superb innings from Jennings, after being dropped early on, even before he had opened his account. He survived a testing spell in the morning session and then also faced some testing overs from the Indian spin trio.
Unlike Haseeb Hameed, Jennings has been quite positive in his approach and used the sweep to good effect. Infact, he brought up his century with a reverse sweep.
England are sitting pretty on 196 for two in 62 overs at the tea break on Day 2.
Jennings is unbeaten on a splendid knpock of 103 from 196 balls, while Moeen has made 25 from 75 balls with the duo putting on an unbroken stand of 60 runs for the third wicket.
India need a few quick wickets in the post-tea session or else England are threatening to steal the first day's honours with a good batting display.
