India added 113 runs in the first session and lost a couple of wickets in form of overnight batters Karun Nair (26) and KL Rahul (55).

Resuming at 64/1, India suffered the first setback in the day when Nair edged one behind off Brydon Carse and was dismissed for 26 (46 balls, 5 fours).

KL Rahul completed his half-century but lost his middle stump when Josh Tongue angled one in, walking back for an 84-ball 55 with 10 fours.
