It's a five match test series and two more games to follow after this test match. English team scored 251 runs at the end of day 1 and it's surprising because England usually don't score runs with 3 rpo even in test cricket. Root is just one run away from his 37th test hundred. It looks that English team will score 350 runs in first innings and it will be more ideal if they can score 400 runs. Indian bowlers didn't gave away too many runs on first day but they also were not able to pick wickets.
Yeah in England played first in the 3rd Test game against India. England opened the innings with Zak and Duckett who scored a partnership of 43 runs which was not suitable in a test game. Unfortunately openers were eliminated at 44 runs then one down player's performance added 44 runs for 153 runs in total. India has successfully got 4 wickets at this time letting middle order players enter the game. Joe Root is still on the wicket with 99 runs contribution so at day 2 he will complete his century. India's bowler Nitish Kumar got 2 wickets of the openers and with the end of day England has lost its 4 wickets at 251 runs. England is expected to go for over 500 runs target if they played consistently and survived.
