India got no respite on Day 2 in Rajkot as England continued to score big in the 1st Test. The Indians could only manage to take a couple of wickets in the morning session as the visitors were 450/6 at lunch.
Moeen Ali, as expected, completed his fourth Test century, before being castled by Mohammad Shami. Instead of going down, England’s scoring rate only increased after the dismissal of Ali.

Ben Stokes and Jonny Bairstow (46) took the Indian bowlers for cleaners and scored at more than five an over. They stitched a 99-run partnership for the sixth wicket, as England continued to post a massive first innings total.
Shami was the most successful bowler for India, and picked a couple of wickets in the morning session. The Indians again failed to grab the chances that came their way. Wriddhiman Saha dropped Stokes twice off Umesh Yadav.
When the lunch was taken Stokes (84 not out) and Chris Woakes (4 not out) were batting in the middle.
