India 313-3 (88 ovs) vs England 477 | Scorecard


England take the second new ball after 84 overs as pacer Broad comes back into the attack.

Karun is looking quite comfortable now as he turns the first ball on the leg side for one and Rahul defends the rest of the over.

Karun (34) gets a lifeline in the next over bowled by Ball as he gets an edge but is dropped by Cook at first slip. That ball was flying off the bat and Cook barely got time to react as he got his right hand to it but failed to hold on.

In the next over, Nair takes a single to take India past the 300-run mark, in the 87th over. Rahul then goes hard after a wide delivery which goes between the gully and the second slip fielder for a four to take his score to 159, his highest score in Tests.

Rahul takes two runs to point before he takes a single off the next delivery and Nair takes two runs on the off-side off the last ball of the over.
