Both Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill struck their second hundred of the series to fetch India a handy first innings lead on day two of the fifth and final test against England on Friday.

Each of India’s top five batters, including debutant Devdutt Padikkal, managed 50-plus scores to power the hosts to a commanding 473-8 for a lead of 255.

Ben Stokes claimed a wicket with his first ball in eight months, and James Anderson inched closer to his 700th test wicket, but India, holding an unassailable 3-1 lead in the series, looked in control of the contest.

Kuldeep Yadav (27) and Jasprit Bumrah (19) have raised 45 useful runs for the unbroken ninth wicket and they will resume on Saturday hoping to take India past the 500-mark.
