Rohit Sharma and Ravindra Jadeja both scored centuries to lead an India fightback on day one of the third Test against England after Mark Wood had reduced the hosts to 33-3 in Rajkot. Wood, who replaced Shoaib Bashir in the England side, struck twice in the morning session to remove India’s double-centurion from the second Test, Yashasvi Jaiswal , and Shubman Gill for a duck.
Patidar then attempted to cut Hartley but top-edged the left-arm spinner to Ben Duckett at extra cover to leave India 33-3 by the ninth over. Rohit shines for India Rohit swept, cut and pulled his way to his 11th Test ton, nine of which have come on home soil, as he shared the highest partnership of the series so far with Jadeja. The India captain stepped up his performance after disappointing returns of 24 and 27 runs in the first and second Tests respectively.
