Pant slapping Rashid. I would always remember his first scoring shot in whites.

Pant already has a thug life story to tell his grandchildren #ENGvIND

Rishabh Pant's first scoring shot in Test cricket... was a six. That's how you begin. By doing something that will be brought up the day you retire
— Sidvee (@sidvee) August 18, 2018

Rishabh Pant doesn't think much of Adil Rashid does he?

Virat 'tendulkar' kohli

Adil Rashid's place in England Team has been guaranteed for the next 3 years. #ENGvIND
— Jessy Rajkumari (@imJR_4) August 18, 2018

You would not believe that: Rashid tosses one up, and Kohli can't resist the bait, edging a drive to Stokes at slip to depart for 97. India 279 for 5.

Greatness, thy name is Virat Kohli. #ENGvIND
— Gautam (@gautammahajan11) August 18, 2018

Ben Stokes and Adil Rashid are currently going at five runs an over apiece. Never enough pressure since the lunch break on the batsmen.#ENGvIND
— Suneer (@suneerchowdhary) August 18, 2018

Caught at the boundary just before lunch. Cheteshwar Sehwag for you.#ENGvIND
— cricBC (@cricBC) August 18, 2018

Adil Rashid has announced his presence in the game with that catch.
— Silly Point (@FarziCricketer) August 18, 2018

Pujara should be dropped just for playing that shot. Amateur batting. #ENGvIND
— Gautam (@gautammahajan11) August 18, 2018

Pujara has just hit himself out of the team with that shot.
— Nikhil 🏏 (@CricCrazyNIKS) August 18, 2018

Hahahaha ChePu what a loser. Zillionth time getting dismissed for the short ball.
— Hummus Brain Bunty (@podidosai) August 18, 2018

Looks like Pujara asked Root to review #EngvInd
— Gaurav Sethi (@BoredCricket) August 18, 2018

The desperation to keep batting with KL Rahul forced Pujara to review the decision. He knew Kohli is next. 😂😂 #ENGvIND
— Silly Point (@FarziCricketer) August 18, 2018

The way Pujara convinced KL to take the review, it seems he doesn’t want to bat with Virat at all. #EngvInd

Lmao batsman not interested. Pujara (non striker) forces a review.
Next level Watson from Pujara.
— Fake Mitch Johnson (@NotMitchJohnson) August 18, 2018

Shikhar Dhawan, with 35*, now has the highest score of any Indian batsman not called Virat Kohli this Test series
— Tim (@timwig) August 18, 2018

Rahul should tattoo this score on his body. Chances are he is never gonna get past it again in England anyway.
— buy me books (@GultiGrinch) August 18, 2018

Dhawan has already scores more runs in this innings than Vijay did all series #ENGvIND
— Hari Sadanandan (@iamharry_88) August 18, 2018

For me, Indian openers playing out 1st 11 overs in 1st 45 mins of Test match, without losing any wicket (& scoring 35 runs) on 1st day pitch is mini victory in itself. Bring on the champagne guys! pic.twitter.com/fgkGapVgdx
— India@AsianGames2018 (@India_AllSports) August 18, 2018

Kl Rahul playing with 36 strike rate..
his new strategy
somehow get to the other end and learn to bat from Dhawan😯
— Troll Dhawan Haters (@Dhawanswarrior) August 18, 2018

looking easy to bat here, England need Stokes to get them out of jail
— BND (@NorwegianDave) August 18, 2018

Have to appreciate the confidence of Ashwin not being in his batting gears.
— Alagappan V (@IndianMourinho) August 18, 2018

Dhawan now in double digits in all his three Test innings on this #EngvInd tour.
— Gaurav Sethi (@BoredCricket) August 18, 2018

Dhawan has already justified his inclusion and no wonder he is now moving around :P
— Nikhil 🏏 (@CricCrazyNIKS) August 18, 2018

During his famous 8-15 spell on this ground against Australia in 2015, Stuart Broad found 0.8° of seam movement. So far today, he's finding 1°. #ENGvIND
— The Cricket Prof. (@CricProf) August 18, 2018

Survived 5 overs without losing a wicket. Moral Victory #1 achieved.#ENGvIND

Michael Holding: "Indian players are wearing a black armband... that's not because they're 2-0 down".
— Bob Bamber (@CricketFanBob) August 18, 2018

Congrats Rishabh Pant. Hope you don't have to walk out in the first 20 overs. It'll just feel like another T20 then.#EngvInd
— Gaurav Sethi (@BoredCricket) August 18, 2018

And so the musical chair for the opening spots continues. Dhawan and Rahul the new combination #ENGvsIND
