India vs England Live Score: IND 336/6 at Stumps
England fought their way back into the contest by taking the crucial wickets of Axar Patel and Srikar Bharat during the final session of the day. Both batsmen were left devastated after giving away their wickets to poorly bowled deliveries. On the other hand, Yashasvi Jaiswal displayed remarkable resilience and remained unbeaten on an impressive score of 179 runs. Accompanying him is R Ashwin, the last recognized batsman in the Indian lineup. It is clear that anything less than a total of 500 runs would leave India feeling disappointed. Meanwhile, England's primary focus will be on securing the four remaining wickets in the first session, with the aim of gaining a first-innings lead.

Would have batted as well. It was a great last week, but we know India will come back hard. To come from behind like we did was very pleasing. We'll take the confidence from that, but new week now. It is an amazing atmosphere to play in for the boys. To get such an opportunity at the start of their career will do wonders for their confidence. Two changes - Shoaib Bashir and James Anderson come in for Jack Leach and Mark Wood.
India vs England Live Score: Pitch Report
Eoin Morgan: The wicket looks like a beauty to bat on. The top layer in black soil, below is red soil. There will be turn but not too much on Day 1. Certainly a win toss, bat first wicket. Both sides will play plenty of spinners but we expect the spinners to come into the contest later. The first two days certainly better for batting.

India vs England Live Score: Vikram Rathour on India's batting plans after a second-innings implosion in Hyderabad.
'Could they have batted with more discipline? Maybe they could have. That's what they need to decide and come up with their plans. But, they need to score runs by playing their shots, as you need to back your strengths. Batting is always about scoring runs. It's not about not getting out but how many runs you put on the board.'
