STUMPS - DAY 1

England 288-5 (94 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Ashwin comes back with just a few minutes left for stumps. The first ball is short as Buttler crashes it through the covers for a four. That should make him feel better after enduring a torrid time against the spinners early on.

In the next over, Jadeja gets one to kick off the surface, hitting Stokes on the body, who manages to see off the over, which is the final one of the opening day.

England would be satisfied with their showing on Day 1 as they post 288 for five in 94 overs after electing to bat on a pitch which has given the spinners lot of encouragement, with the odd ball bouncing and turning.

For India, Ashwin was the standout bowler and managed to pull back things after Jennings (112) and Moeen (50) had put on 94 runs for the third wicket.

Jadeja was the other wicket-taker as he dismissed Cook for 46.

The day belonged to the young Jennings, who stroked a splendid 112 on his debut and brought up his maiden century in his first innings in Test cricket, with a stunning reverse sweep.

India will also be satisfied, having claimed five wickets, four of them through Ashwin. A few quick wickets on Day 2 would help them keep England below the 400-run mark, or else the visitors would hold the advantage if they manage to post a big first innings score.
