In the last over of the day, bowled by Yashasvi Jaiswal, England go past 300 after having been 112 for 5 and then 245 for 7. The eighth wicket has added 57 already.

the day belongs to Joe Root. He has scored his 31st Test century, 10th against India. It has been an innings of a class batter purely reacting to whatever has been bowled at him without any preconceived plans.
pitch has been a funny one. It looked cracked, and the first session offered appreciable seam, uneven bounce and turn. And then it went to sleep. Root and Ben Foakes then put together England's biggest partnership of the series. This day has set up another interesting Test.
Joe Root has brought up his 31st Test century. A hard-working innings, it has taken 219 balls for Root to get it. No jumping around, no release of emotion. Just a steely look in his eye and a peck on the helmet.
Ten of his 31 Test hundreds have come against India. He has revived this innings from 112 for 5. Just nine fours in the innings. Very judicious with sweeping because of the low bounce. One reverse-sweep. Just a lot of concentration.
