After folding for just 150 in the first innings. It seemed unlikely in the middle of the first day that India would soon be holding the reins of the Test in less than 24 hours. But come the end of the second session on Day 2 India has the upper hand, thanks to a disciplined batting performance by the openers, that has helped them build on their handy 46-run first-innings lead.

Some credit goes to the pitch, which indeed got friendlier as the day progressed and both Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul made sure that after seeing off the initial tricky period, they began punishing the bad balls.
