India 256-3 (74 ovs) vs England 477 | Scorecard


England continue with pace from one end as Jake Ball takes from Broad, who bowled a good last spell and was rewarded with the wicket of Kohli.

Ball starts with a maiden over to Karun, who looks slightly more settled as compared to the start of his innings.

Rahul looks to sweep Rashid but doesn't connect before he looks for another but gets an inside edge for two runs on the leg side.

Pacer Ball hits Rahul with one that bounces more than expected as it goes off the gloves on to his rib cage, leaving him in some pain.

Rahul has a close shave as he looks for a quick single to Dawson at mid-on who swoops in quickly but misses the direct hit with the batsman struggling to make his crease.

Rahul then gives Rashid the charge and plays a nice drive through the covers for a four. The fourth ball is flicked to deep midwicket to fetch the right-hander another couple of runs.

With around 10 mins to go for tea, England bring back Moeen, who gives away three singles in the over.

Rahul takes a single to bring up India's 250, in the 74th over. Rashid drops one short as Karun pulls it through midwicket for a four before he tickles the last ball fine for two runs to end the session.
