After early wickets, veteran spinner Ravichandran Ashwin and debutant Dhruv Jurel took the responsibility on their shoulders to take India to 388 runs for seven wickets on day two of the IND vs ENG 3rd Test.

On a docile pitch which has not favoured any style of bowling yet, India's approach remained largely conservative which was also influenced to some extent by twin blows shortly after the play began.
