India captain Virat Kohli won the toss but was left to rue his decision to bat as edges after edges kept flying into Jos Buttler`s waiting gloves behind the stumps.
LEEDS: England shot out India for a paltry 78 and cruised to 120 for no loss in their robust reply to take early control of the third Test at Headingley on Wednesday. Complementing the bowlers' effort, Haseeb Hamid and Rory Burns batted through rest of the opening day forging England's best opening partnership in the series so far. Hamid celebrated his promotion to the opener's role with an unbeaten 60, while Burns was on 52 at stumps with England 42 runs ahead and on course for a big first-innings lead. "It's been a great day for us and topped off by being none down overnight," seamer Craig Overton, who claimed 3-14, told Sky Sports. "It's good for us bowlers to get some rest and be ready to go when we're back out there." "We know they're a good bowling attack, we know it will still be hard tomorrow, so we need to work hard to bat them out of the game."More Related News
