India continues its domination.

The Indian wicketkeeper was the aggressor and batted in the topmost gear. However, Pant was not able to complete his second Test hundred as he tried to play an attacking shot when he was on 92 runs.

However, Ravindra Jadeja was the star of the day. Jadeja scored his maiden Test hundred as he batted in the topmost gear. It was a fine knock from the Indian all-rounder as he batted in the topmost gear.
