It was a shared session with England making early inroads before India crawled back through Dhruv Jurel and R Ashwin.
It was again an ideal start to the day for England as they dislodged both the overnight pair of Ravindra Jadeja and Kuldeep Yadav in successive over inside the first half-an-hour of play. At 331/7, the 400-run mark appeared quite distant but debutant Dhruv Jurel joined forces with Ravichandran Ashwin to take India closer through an unbroken 57-run stand when the lunch break was taken on Day 2 of the 3rd Test in Rajkot.
Jurel walked in after Kuldeep Yadav was caught-behind off James Anderson on 4. And Jurel then watched from the other end as Joe Root took a return catch to remove centurion Ravindra Jadeja on 112 who seemed to have gone into a shell post his century.
