Harry Brook out for 99

ENG vs IND 1st Test LIVE: Not the best of starts for England as Prasidh Krishna claims the wicket of centurion Ollie Pope and Mohammed Siraj has gotten Ben Stokes before lunch. The trail is 195 but the pitch seems very good to bat on.

Jasprit Bumrah will look to end Brook’s stay in the middle early. He will look to make amends for giving him a lifeline yesterday by dismissing him on a no-ball. Team India will have to be more measured in the field. They dropped a couple of straightforward catches yesterday and their ground fielding wasn’t the best either.

Shubman Gill will hope Ravindra Jadeja and Mohammed Siraj continue bowling well and that Prasidh Krishna brings out his best. Shardul Thakur will have to be shown more trust as well, given that he’s India’s fourth bowler. Yesterday, he wasn’t brought on until the 40th over. That can’t happen today.
