Rahul's century drives India forward on Day 3
December 18, 2016  14:48


India 268-3 (77 ovs) vs England 477 | Scorecard


Stokes, who has bowled just six overs so far, starts off after the tea break. He starts with a short ball to Rahul, who opts to leave it. Stokes tries a slower ball as Rahul is too early into the shot but manages to defend it.

Rahul drives the fifth ball down the ground past mid-off for a couple of runs and defends the last ball.

Like in the previous two sessions, it is Dawson, who starts off at the start of a session. He makes a tidy start giving away just two singles, in his 14th over.

Stokes tries a short delivery to Rahul which is a bit wide as the right-hander ramps it over the slip region for a four. He turns the next ball on the leg side for a couple and then picks a single to thirdman before Karun does the same for one.

The two batsmen have brought up their 50-run stand to steady India after the early dismissal of Kohli.
