(Video) England break ominous partnership thanks to Anderson

KL Rahul had struck an equilibrium between caution and audacity while he carved his path to 46 off 101 balls, but James Anderson was always going to be a threat as the clouds got darker. A faint edge was presented to the wicketkeeper but the umpire didn’t seem to discern it and was eventually forced to rectify his call after England went upstairs. Nonetheless, Rahul’s pragmatism was instrumental in forging the 83-run partnership along with Rohit Sharma as India dwarfed the deficit to 16 runs.
