Root, Bairstow punish Indian bowlers as England reach 216 for 3 for lunch

England captain Joe Root once again tormented a listless Indian bowling attack while Jonny Bairstow added to their woes as the hosts reached 216 for 3 at lunch on the third day of the second Test. Root, a nemesis of Indian bowlers since his international debut, was once again at his best as he attacked them from the start of the third day and found an able ally in Bairstow, who also scored runs at a fair clip. The England captain, who is inching towards his 22nd Test hundred, is currently batting on 89 off 171 balls with nine boundaries to his credit. On the other hand, Bairstow vindicated his coach Chris Silverwood's decision to persist with him by getting his 22nd half-century, remaining undefeated on 51 off 91 balls. Bairstow has six boundaries to his credit. The duo added 108 runs for the third wicket as Virat Kohli's five-pronged attack failed to make a single breakthrough on a pitch that had already slowed down a touch and became easier for batting.
