    "editor1": "<p>Southampton, Aug 30 - India dominated the opening day of the fourth Test match as the visitors first bowled out England just a few overs before stumps and then scored 19\/0 at the Rose Bowl Cricket Ground here on Thursday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>4th Test:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/cricket-livescore\/scorecard\/13071962823\/India-in-England-1\">India vs England <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/cricket-livescore\/scorecard\/13071962823\/India-in-England-1\">SCORECARD<\/a><br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nWith India trailing by 227 runs, openers Lokesh Rahul (11) and Shikhar Dhawan (3) remained unbeaten.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nThe day started with Indian pacers wrecking England&#39;s top order, taking four quick wickets to reduce the hosts to 57\/4 at lunch.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nJasprit Bumrah (2\/21), Ishant Sharma (1\/7) and Hardik Pandya (1\/16) were among the wickets even as Mohammed Shami, coming in as the second change bowler, constantly kept asking questions to the vulnerable English pair.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nElecting to bat on a track with a tinge of live grass, England&#39;s opening woes continued to haunt them as Keaton Jennings was trapped plumb in front by an excellent incoming delivery from Bumrah, for a duck in the third over of the innings.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<div style=\"page-break-after:always\"><span style=\"display:none\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/div>\r\n\r\n<p>One over later, Bumrah almost sent packing English skipper Joe Root (4) when he was on two, before the Decision Review System (DRS) came to the latter&#39;s rescue. Root was trapped plumb in front but television replays showed the bowler had overstepped.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nThe England captain, however, failed to take advantage of the reprieve as Ishant swung it big into the England captain to trap him lbw.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nReduced to 15\/2, England&#39;s hopes were pinned on former skipper Alastair Cook (17) and Jonny Bairstow (6), playing as a specialist batsman after injuring his finger.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nBut Bumrah scuttled such ambitions by scalping Bairstow, caught behind by Rishabh Pant in the 13th over before first-change bowler Hardik ended Cook&#39;s 55-ball resistance, thanks to a brilliant low catch at the third slip by Virat Kohli.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nIndia could have had Buttler too, but Pant missed a tough one. Together with Stokes, Buttler managed to see off the initial scare from the Indian pace attack before heading for lunch undivided.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nThe second session saw Indian pacers continue their domination, taking two more wickets in the second session to reduce England to 139-6.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nResuming the post-lunch session at 57\/4, Stokes and Buttler played out the initial few overs cautiously before Buttler started opening up only to bring his downfall, caught by Virat Kohli off Shami.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nReduced to 86\/6, the left-handed pair of Moeen and Sam steered the ship to safety, as they played the Indian pacers with extreme caution and did not allow premier off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin to dominate.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nThe final session saw Moeen and Curran stabilising the hosts innings, forging a crucial 81-run partnership. After Moeen&#39;s wicket no other batter supported Curran, and as a result the hosts were bundled out for 246 just before the end of play.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nFor India, Jasprit Bumrah took three wickets while Ishant Sharma, Mohammad Shami and Ravichandran Ashwin took two wickets each.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nBrief scores: England first innings: 246 all out (Sam Curran 78; Jasprit Bumrah 3\/46) against India: 19\/0 (Lokesh Rahul 11) at stumps on Day 1<\/p>\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<p>IANS<\/p>\r\n",
