1st Test: Bairstow, Root Keep England Steady At Lunch After Losing Quick Wickets
Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium: Right-handed batters Jonny Bairstow and Joe Root have steadied the ship for England after losing three quick wickets and take the side to 108/3 in 28 overs at lunch on day one of the first Test against India at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium on Thursday.
It was an eventful morning session where the vociferous crowd was treated to twists and turns. England stayed true to their Bazball way of playing the game via the 55-run opening partnership between Ben Duckett and Zak Crawley.
But Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja came in to take three wickets in 21 balls. Bairstow and Root led the repair job for England via the 48-run partnership for the fourth wicket, while remaining unbeaten on 32 and 18 respectively.
