A 179-run fourth-wicket stand between Root and Ali bailed England out from a tricky 102/3 and helped them reach 311/4 at stumps on Day 1.
Indian bowlers, after a bright start in the morning session, toiled hard in the post-lunch and tea sessions but without much luck.

Ben Stokes (19) was the other unbeaten batsman for England. Ravichandran Ashwin took two wickets for India with Ravindra Jadeja chipping with another.
