Play halted due to bad light
Poor light forces the action to stop at Trent Bridge. There is a dense cloud cover and the umpires have asked the players to walk back to the dressing room. India: 125 for 4 after 46.1 overs.
Pant charges
Pant gets his first boundary and this shot is the proof that he is there for a longer period of time. Beautifully played through the gap between cover and mid-off. India: 119/4
Rishabh Pant in the house
Rishabh Pant walks out to bat after India lose BIG 3 - Pujara, Kohli, Rahane in quick succession. All eyes will be on him, especially after what he had done to England bowlers in Ahmedabad Test, earlier this year.
NOTE: Pant scored his maiden Test ton when he last batted in England.
Rahane run out for 5
WICKET! Unfortunate dismissal for the Indian vice-captain, rather it was a suicide attempt. Rahul shouts 'No' after defending one to the right of backward point but it was too late for Rahane to return safely at the non-striker's end from the halfway. Direct hit from Bairstow and India lose another. IND: 112/4 after 43.2 overs.
Kohli goes for a golden duck
5th time Kohli has been dismissed for a golden duck
3rd time vs England
Overall his 13th duck in Tests.

- 3rd fifty-plus score vs England - 199 at Chennai, 2016 | 149 at The Oval,2018
Anderson's double strike
One over from Anderson has certainly changed the course of the game. India looked in utmost control at one point but now they have lost three men. Pujara out for 4 and Kohli out for a golden duck in the very next ball. Both gone in the same fashion - caught behind. IND: 104/3
Pujara survives
A bit of inward movement there. Pujara shouldered his arms but gets hit on the front pad. Huge appeal from English players and umpire Michael Gough raises his finger. The batsman challenges the decision and survives as the bowl was moving upwards. All smiles in India camp.
100-up for India
Pujara takes a quick single and 100 runs come on board for India. They trail by 83 runs. IND: 100/1 after 39 overs.
2nd session begins
Joe Root and his boys take the field as the second session begins. KL Rahul, who is 2 runs away from his 12th fifty, walks out to bat with Cheteshwar Pujara. India resume innings at 97/1. Ollie Robinson continues.
Lunch break on Day 2

Rahul's astonishing straight drive
