England captain Joe Root was hardly perturbed during his undefeated knock of 132, but the Indian pace attack fared marginally better to make a few breakthroughs before the hosts reached 314-5 at tea on the third day of the second Test.

India were bowled out for 364 in the first innings. As many as 97 and 98 runs were scored in first two sessions respectively, signalling the plight of the Indian bowling attack, primarily due to Root, who has tweaked his stance with lesser trigger movement of back-foot.
