India vs England 3rd Test Day 2 Highlights: England 423/8 at stumps, lead by 345 runs

Mohammed Shami comes back into the attack and is in action straightaway. The 52-run partnership between Joe Root and Jonny Bairstow has been broken. Shami bowls a teaser to Bairstow just outside off and he commits to the drive. Outside edge and Virat Kohli takes a sharp, low catch at first slip. Bairstow walks back for 29. ENG 350/4 after 107.3 overs, lead by 272 runs

Joe Root 103* | Jonny Bairstow 29* | Partnership - 52* off 80 balls | England 350/3 after 107.2 overs, lead by 272 runs

Right from the middle of the bat! Jonny Bairstow goes aerial and connects the ball to perfection. Slams Ravindra Jadeja over the long-on fence. ENG 344/3 after 106.1 overs, lead by 266 runs

Another day another hundred for Joe Root. He is making this a habit. What a series England skipper is having. He has singlehandedly dominated India. Slams his third ton of the series. 109 in Nottingham and then a 180* at Lord's in a losing cause and now 100 not out at Headingley. Just can't get better than this! Root has been a run machine and he is in form of his life! Gets to his 23rd Test ton off just 124 balls. ENG 333/3 after 103.2 overs, lead by 255 runs

Joe Root 96* | Jonny Bairstow 15* | Partnership - 31* off 52 balls | England 329/3 after 102.3 overs

Jonny Bairstow gets going as well from the other end. Long stride forward against Ravindra Jadeja and hits the ball through cover point to collect his second consecutive boundary. ENG 321/3

A boundary from Joe Root to end the over from Mohammed Siraj. Over-cooked from Siraj on that occasion and Root punches the ball straight down the ground and it races to the long-off fence. Root moves into the 90s. India have now been on the field for 100 overs. ENG 313/3 after 100 overs, lead by 235 runs.

Back-to-back tight overs overs from Ravindra Jadeja and Mohammed Siraj but England are in no hurry at all. Both Joe Root and Jonny Bairstow taking their time to settle in after the tea break. A tidy one-run over from Jadeja comes to an end.

Joe Root 81* | Jonny Bairstow 1* | England 300/3 after 95.5 overs, lead by 222 runs

Ravindra Jadeja starts off with a maiden post Tea for India. Mohammed Siraj to share the ball with him from the other end after the break. ENG 298/3 after 95 overs, lead by 220 runs

Joe Root (80*) and Jonny Bairstow (0*) are in the middle to resume the England innings in the final session on Day 2. Ravindra Jadeja has the ball in hand for India. Just one slip in place for him. Here we go! ENG 298/3 after 94 overs, lead by 220 runs

Skipper Joe Root batted like a dream while Dawid Malan struck a sublime fifty in his comeback game as England piled misery on India to reach 298 for three at tea on day two of the second Test. Runs came thick and fast for England in the afternoon session as India bowlers appeared toothless, both with old and new ball. The hosts added 116 runs in the session to extend their lead to 220 runs. Root (80 batting off 94) and Malan (70 off 128) shared a 139-run stand off 189 balls before the southpaw picked up a faint edge while trying to flick Mohammad Siraj at the stroke of tea. Indian pacers, who scripted a memorable win at Lord's, bowled too many boundary balls and the England duo was quick to put them away. The pitch seems to have eased out considerably for the batsman after India collapsed to 78 all out on day one. Root, who had been singlehandedly carrying the batting responsibilities, got much need support from Malan, who has made an instant impact in his first Test in three years. Indian bowlers have not been able to trouble Root so far in the series and the skipper scored runs at will on Thursday. He seems to be in the form of his life and reached his 51st fifty off just 57 balls with a gorgeous back foot punch through the covers. Malan too played some delightful strokes and was brutal as well as elegant on the off-side. Besides the cover drives and rasping cut shots, he also effectively used the glide to third man region. With England looking good to bat India out of the game, the visitors will now need to produce something special to bounce back.

That's it! Tea on Day 2. Another tough session comes to an end but a wicket off the last ball will definitely bring some cheer back into the Indian camp. Siraj drifts down the leg side and Dawid Malan tries to flick it down to the fine-leg fence. Siraj definitely heard something and he convinces skipper Virat Kohli to take the review. Luck goes India's way as ultraedge confirms that the ball just brushed Malan's bat before going into the hands of wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant. Malan is out for 70 but Joe Root heads back the the pavilion unbeaten on 80. Nevertheless, it was a great session for England as Root and Malan hijacked it adding 116 runs. We have just completed the second session of the second day and England are in absolute control of this Test.

This is exceptional from Joe Root! Nothing is bothering him at the moment. A bumper from Mohammed Siraj and Root just rolls his wrists over the ball and pulls the ball to the line-leg fence. There were two fielders at the fence for that kind of shot but Root places the ball to perfection. ENG 291/2 after 91.3 overs.

This is the first time since 1976 when the top four batsmen of a team have scored fifty plus runs in the same innings of a Test at Leeds. Rory Burns (61), Haseeb Hameed (68), Dawid Malan (65*) and Joe Root (72*). England 285/2 after 91 overs.

10 overs in with the second new ball and India searching way to break this Dawid Malan and Joe Root 124-run unbeaten stand. The shoulders are going down in the Indian camp. Both Malan and root looking unstoppable and England lead has now gone past the 200-run mark. ENG 282/2 after 90 overs.
