Cheteshwar Pujara and skipper Virat Kohli added crucial runs in the final session as India reduced the deficit at Stumps in the second innings of the third Test at Headingley in Leeds. India were placed at 215/2 after 80 overs, still trailing by 139 runs with Pujara batting on 91 and Kohli on 45 not out at Stumps. Earlier, opener Rohit Sharma scored a classy fifty but was dismissed post Tea for 59 runs by Ollie Robinson as India faced a tough task at hand. After KL Rahul's departure, Rohit and Cheteshwar Pujara showcased exceptional defensive skills post Lunch as the former also completed his fifty after Rohit's dismissal. England struck on the stroke of Lunch as Craig Overton dismissed opener Rahul with Jonny Bairstow taking an incredible one-handed catch. India picked up England's remaining two wickets early on Day 3 to bowl out the hosts for 432 runs as they conceded a 354-run lead in the first innings. (SCORECARD)
