Drinks Break! England struck twice in the opening session through Lauren Bell, who first had Smriti Mandhana caught down the leg side before producing a peach of an inswinger to dismiss Jemimah Rodrigues. But beyond those breakthroughs, the hosts have struggled to maintain consistent lines and lengths, allowing India to stay firmly on top.

Yastika Bhatia has been the standout performer, registering her second Test half-century, while Harmanpreet Kaur has settled in well at the other end. India have added 58 runs in 13 overs in the first hour, stretching their overall lead to a commanding 327 runs. England need quick wickets after the break to claw their way back into the contest.

Harmanpreet Kaur cashes in on a rare error from Sophie Ecclestone. The left-arm spinner drifts onto the pads, and the India captain simply helps it on its way with a fine glance. Timed to perfection, and it races away to the boundary. Easy runs for Harmanpreet.
