In-form KL Rahul (22) looked all set for another impact innings, but Root pinned him on the back-foot as the batter attempted a whip on the on-side. India could have felt a greater pinch with Iyer’s dismissal as he is one of the better-equipped batter in this batting unit to negate spin.

S. Gill stunned fans at 0. Ravindra Jadeja challenged Ben Stokes for a quick single and the England captain found his target with a direct throw, catching the batter well short of the crease.

Skipper Rohit Sharma looked in good space but Hartley’s guile had him stationed in front of the wicket when the ball thudded on to his pads.
