India vs England 1st Test Day 3: Updates from Chennai

IND vs ENG: Hello and welcome to the live coverage of India vs England 1st Test Day 3 on indiatvnews.com. England took a commanding position in the ongoing 1st Test in Chennai, ending the second day on 555/8 with captain Joe Root slamming an incredible double-ton. He was ably supported by Ben Stokes (82) as the two added 124 for the fourth wicket. At close, Dominic Bess was batting on 28 and Jack Leach was on six. The two tail-enders added an unbeaten 30 in 10.3 overs. India picked four wickets in the last session, with pace bowler Ishant Sharma getting two wickets -- Jos Buttler and Jofra Archer -- off two balls, but Bess and Leach ensured that Virat Kohli's boys will have to return on the third morning, something that Root wanted.
