India vs England Live Score: Pitch Report

The pitch slowed down 0.5 meters on day 2 to what it was on the opening day. It is expected to spin. "It's a very pleasant morning. England are way behind, India in the driver's seat. We are set for a bumper day of Test match cricket. There are footholes, Mark Wood has created better opportunities for the Indian spinners, especially Ashwin to make best use of what would be a very good length for Ashwin to bowl to the right-handers. KL Rahul felt that it has slowed down. On day one, the pitch was 0.5 metres quicker than what it was on day two. That's a very big difference. It allows the batter to adjust. My view is that it's going to spin a long way and we could see a Test match that finishes today," Murali Kartik and Kevin Pietersen say in their pitch report.

09:12 AM

India vs England Live Score: KL Rahul after day 2

The 100 in SA has given me some confidence, also having played 6-7 months of cricket since my injury. The aim was to stay positive when I went out to bat. Very different to that of South Africa (on the pitch) - a bit of turn, it became slower and slower as the ball went old. Was a challenge, I had to wait for my opportunity to play shots. Enjoying batting in the middle-order. I did enjoy batting in the top-order for a long time, but here you get some time to put your feet up, watch as to how the ball is doing, what the bowlers are doing and it gives time to plan your innings. It's only the second day, we just wanted to bat the full day and get as many runs as possible (on the team plan). The chat was to bat as long as possible and everyone to bat and score as many runs as we could.
