India vs England 3rd Test, Day 1 Live Score Updates: Virat Kohli's Team India are facing Joe Root-led England in the third Test of the five-match series at Headingley in Leeds from Wednesday (August 25).
India vs England 3rd Test, Day 1 Live Score Updates: Virat Kohli's poor run in the ongoing England Test series continued as the Indian skipper was packed by veteran English pacer James Anderson on 7 on the opening day of the third Test in Leeds. After electing to bat first, India got off to a poor start as the visitors lost in-form batsman KL Rahul on duck. Following his dismissal, India lost Cheteshwar Pujara, who like Kohli edged the ball straight to Jos Buttler. India at the moment is batting on 21/3 with opener Rohit Sharma and Ajinkya Rahane in the middle. All eyes will be on the pair on how they tackle this terrific spell of Anderson, who has so far picked all the three wickets the tourists have lost. Meanwhile, Indian skipper Virat Kohli finally won a toss and elected to bat first in the third Test against Joe Root's England. Kohli said he was 'surprised' at winning the toss and chose to bat first as the pitch at Headingley look a good batting strip with not much grass on the surface. India have chose to go with the same playing XI as the second Test at Lord's which means off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin will miss out again.More Related News
