Joe Root bowling performance

English skipper Joe Root’s bowling spell on Day 2 turned out to be one of the highlights of the gripping Test match. He rolled his arm over during India’s first innings, thus instigating a great Indian collapse as the hosts were bundled out for just 145. He bowled for 6.2 overs and dismissed the likes of Rishabh Pant and R Ashwin in his maiden five-wicket haul.
