England did not have a good start in the first innings. Openers Rory Burns (40) and Dom Sibley (11) did not allow the Indian bowlers to get success in the first 14 overs but Siraj created a ruckus in the England camp in the 15th over with two wickets in successive deliveries. Sibley rewarded his wicket by flicking the on-side ball off Siraj, despite being fielder in the form of Rahul at short midwicket. Haseeb Hameed, who returned to the Test team after five years, became the ‘Golden Duck’. He was bowled due to not understanding Siraj’s full length ball. Burns then shared an 85-run partnership with Root for the third wicket. Burns became the victim of Mohammed Shami in the 42nd over.
