And that is stumps on Day 2! It has been a day in which India has dominated thoroughly and there have been plenty of partnerships, which have added to England's misery. Joe Root provided the spark that England missed on Day 1 and picked up a wicket in the very first over of the day. But India, at no point, did look to give up control of this contest. Regular partnerships and constant rotation of strike has helped India dictate proceedings and the only thing that the hosts would rue the fact that both Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul failed to score hundreds after doing so well throughout their respective knocks. Ravindra Jadeja and Axar Patel saw out the day and took India's lead to a massive 175 here. India would now look to add some more and potentially surpass the 200-run mark on Day 3 before England come out to bat. The visitors are staring at a mountain now and would need to play really well in order to even pull off a draw. Thanks for joining us for this live coverage!

With less than 10 overs left today, Ravindra Jadeja and Axar Patel would look to see things out, rather than attempt anything ambitious. India are in the driver's seat and from England's perspective, a wicket here can do their confidence some good.

The runs keep on flowing for India with Ravindra Jadeja holding one end tightly while Axar Patel is at the other. India's lead is well beyond the 100-run mark and things only seem to get worse for England. With around 15 overs remaining, India would look to not lose any more wicket today. 

26 Jan, 15:54 (IST)

DRINKS! It's drinks break now after 94 overs are completed and India is in the lead by 122 runs. Ravindra Jadeja is looking comfortable on the pitch while Axar Patel is still looking to find a grip on the pitch.

OUT! As Ravichandran Ashwin hit the ball towards the covers, he ran straight away towards the other end to take a run for which Ravindra Jadeja was not ready. It ended up in a big miscommunication and the loss of another wicket quickly for India. Ravichandran Ashwin run out (Tom Hartley)

OUT! Joe Root has provided England with yet another breakthrough as he trapped KS Bharat in front of the stumps. Bharat attempted a sweep and missed the ball completey, which hit him on his back leg. Despite him opting for a review, the replay showed that it would crash into the stumps. KS Bharat lbw b Joe Root 41(81)

England have taken the second new ball in this innings with the hope of taking a breakthrough as soon as possible. The partnership between KS Bharat and Ravindra Jadeja has been solid for India so far as the hosts have their lead go past 100 runs now. 

26 Jan, 15:00 (IST)

FIFTY! Ravindra Jadeja has scored a half-century but not before surviving an lbw chance, which showed an inside edge after opting for a DRS. Jadeja's 50 is the third half-century by an Indian in this innings and he would look to make it big, with India already in a dominant position.
