Rishabh Pant was forced to leave the field on Day 1 after suffering an injury. He attempted a reverse sweep off Chris Woakes and was struck on his right toe by the delivery during the third session. The wicketkeeper-batter, who had scored 37 off 48 balls, was visibly in pain and could not continue.
India ended the opening day at 264/4, with half-centuries from Sai Sudharsan (61) and Yashasvi Jaiswal (58). England captain Ben Stokes picked up two wickets. At stumps, Ravindra Jadeja (19) and Shardul Thakur (19) were unbeaten at the crease.
