LONDON (AP) – England and India shared the honours after the first morning of the fifth and final cricket test at The Oval on Thursday.
After stand-in England captain Ollie Pope had won the toss and put India into bat, the tourists reached lunch on 72-2 as heavy rain cut the session short by five minutes.
The home team struck first with the score on 10-0, Gus Atkinson cutting the ball in from outside the off stump to trap Yashasvi Jaiswal lbw for 2.
Fellow opener KL Rahul then bottom-edged an attempted cut shot off Chris Woakes onto his off stump to leave India on 38-2.
