Eight down, certainly not all out in this series
Further lower-order stands, a superb hundred from Pujara and Moeen again enjoying bowling against India provided the main stats of the day

Cheteshwar Pujara found form in away conditions after a long time. His superb unbeaten knock of 132 runs was just his second century in Tests outside Asia in40 innings. The first one he scored was in South Africa in 2013-14. Since that tour of South Africa, he had got to fifty only four times in 32 innings before this knock. This is also the first time since the South Africa tour of 2013-14 he has managed more than one fifty-plus score in a series outside Asia.
