KL Rahul equalled Sunil Gavaskar’s record of scoring 1000+ runs as an Indian opener in overseas Tests as India reached 78/0 at lunch on Day 1 of the 4th Test against England at Old Trafford, Manchester. Rahul remained unbeaten on 40 alongside Yashasvi Jaiswal, who scored 36, after England opted to bowl first. The opening pair saw off the new ball comfortably in a solid first session, giving India the upper hand. With the five-match series level at 1-1, the visitors made the most of a good batting pitch, aiming to build a strong first-innings total. (PC: NDTV)
