India vs England Day 1 Highlights: India dominate with the bat
Yashasvi Jaiswal (101): The young left-hander notched up a fluent century, his third in Tests.
Shubman Gill (127)*: Gill became only the third Indian captain to score a century in his first match leading the Test side.
Rishabh Pant (65)*: Known for his attacking flair, Pant counter-attacked late in the day with an unbeaten half-century, including a six off Chris Woakes in the final over.
England's bowling attack struggled to extract much from the surface. Woakes finished wicketless, and debutant Bashir and Brydon Carse failed to apply pressure consistently.
Captain Ben Stokes, who took two wickets, rotated his bowlers frequently but couldn't halt India's progress.

Karun Nair's return after 8 years ends in a whimper as Ben Stokes dismisses him for a duck: 'Dangerous thing to do...'
All eyes were on Karun Nair on how he performs upon his return to the Test playing XI after eight years.

The 33-year-old lasted just four balls in the middle as he was sent back to the dressing room by England skipper Ben Stokes. India vs England, 1st Test: Karun Nair got out for a duck on his return to the playing XI after eight years. (Action Images via Reuters) Karun Nair went for a big booming cover drive off the bowling of Stokes. However, he was unable to time it perfectly, and Ollie Pope ended up taking a marvellous catch. Stokes bowled a full outswinger wide of off stump. There was merit in going for a cover drive. However, Karun Nair was unable to get the timing. The ball was flying, but Ollie Pope dived full length to his left and took the catch with both his hands overhead. 'He was looking to play a cover drive. Dangerous thing to do at the start of your innings. He would have been better off had he slashed at that delivery,' said Sanjay Manjrekar on air while commentating on JioHotstar. Coincidentally, debutant Sai Sudharsan also lasted four balls in the middle, the same as Karun Nair. Both batters were eventually dismissed by Stokes. Karun Nair got into the India squad for the series against England on the back of strong performances for Vidharba in the Ranji Trophy and Vijay Hazare Trophy. The right-handed batter put on a run-scoring spree, and the selectors were unable to look past him for the England tour. Karun Nair batted at the No.3 and No.4 spots in India A's two unofficial Tests against England Lions. However, he was asked to bat at No.6 in the first Test against England in Headingley.

On Day 2, Rishabh Pant completed his seventh Test ton. On the other hand, Shubman Gill missed out on going past 150 as he got out for 147 off the bowling of Shoaib Bashir. Earlier, Jaiswal and Gill had slammed centuries on the opening day of the Test. Ben Stokes has been the pick of the England bowlers so far, as he has been the one to trouble the Indian batters on most occasions.
