Virat Kohli and Cheteshwar Pujara hit unbeaten half-centuries to extend India's domination in the morning session, Day 3 of the third Test in Nottingham, on Monday.

India didn't lose a single wicket in the first session of the third session, to take their score to 194 for two in 60 overs, to swell their overall lead to a massive 362 runs.

Kohli was unbeaten on 54 from 96 balls, while Pujara, who survived a dropped catch, made 56 from 168 balls, with the duo putting on an unbroken stand of 83 runs for the third wicket.

India, who resumed on 124 for two, were happy to adopt a cautious approach as they scored just 70 runs from 29 overs, preferring to grind out the fast bowlers.

India would happy to continue their steady batting after lunch and slowly inch their way towards a 500-run lead, before they look to attack the England bowlers and deflate them further.
