Kohli has tried every medicine in his bank to get back into runs except for one.
He should just use Pant's approach. Just go for the kill from ball one@imVkohli #ENGvIND

The 33-year-old has 71 international hundreds -- 27 in Tests and 43 hundred in ODIs. But the last time he scored a ton was more than 950 days ago, 136 against Bangladesh in 2019.

Ben Stokes won the toss and opted to bowl first, then English pacers rocked India. James Anderson got the wickets of openers Shubman Gill (17) and Cheteshwar Pujara (13), while Matthew Potts removed Hanuma Vihari (20) and Kohli. Anderson then got a third, getting rid of Shreyas Iyer (15).

Rishabh Pant (53 off 52) and Ravindra Jadeja (32 off 65) were in an unbeaten 76-run stand for the sixth wicket.

Jasprit Bumrah is leading India with Rohit Sharma out with COVID-19 infection.

India lead the five-match series 2-1. The series is part of the ongoing ICC World Test Championship 2021-23 cycle.
