In the gap of two overs, Bhuvneshwar Kumar struck twice to get rid of nightwatchman Chris Jordan and the well-set Ian Bell to give Dhoni something to cheer about. With still 12 runs behind India's total, England had lost half their side.

Slight drizzle soon turned into heavy rain as puddles formed in the outfield, making it tough for the ground staff to get the game back on.

The umpires inspected the conditions multiple times and eventually ruled out the chance of further play on the second day's play.

More than a session-and-a-half was lost due to rain with England on 237/6, leading India by 85 runs in the first innings.
