August 20, 2018 15:52

India 132-2 (36 ovs) & 329 vs Eng 161 | Scorecard

Anderson getting some sharp bounce as Pujara offers no shot but the ball keeps climbing on it's way to the wicketkeeper. The next ball beats Pujara as it moves away enough to go past the edge before he turns the third ball on the leg side for one.

He then bowls two inswingers to Kohli, who blocks it watchfully, before Anderson beats him with the outswinger, narrowly missing the edge again to end another good over.

In the next over, Pujara flicks Woakes through midwicket for two runs before he blocks out the rest of the over with utmost caution.

Kohli turns Anderson on the leg side for a single to take India to 132 to two, in the 36th over, extending their lead to 300 runs.

India are sitting pretty on 132 for two in 36 overs, for an overall lead of 300 runs with eight wickets still in hand
