Team
approached the first Test with a positive mindset especially after winning the Border Gavaskar Trophy series in Australian soil. However,
's courage was much greater than India's might.
Pujara reacts to his 'unlucky dismissal' against England
The England team management couldn't be happier to see their players dictating the tempo on most occasions. They scored 578 in the first innings with the help of Joe Root's double century. Root scored 218 including 19 fours and 2 sixes. Dominic Sibley scored 87 whereas all-rounder Ben Stokes scored 82 to his name. Bumrah and Ashwin took 3 wickets each. However, India did not dominate well with the bat. Jofra Archer removed
and Shubman Gill early on as the hosts were in all sorts of trouble. However, Cheteshwar Pujara and
constructed a vital 119-run stand for the fourth wicket. While India looked to settle themselves at the crease, Pujara was dismissed in the unluckiest fashion. Batting on 73, Pujara tried to play a shot off Dom Bess' bowling but he ended up hitting Rory Burns' shoulders at the short-leg as the ball bounced towards the mid-wicket. Meanwhile, Ollie Pope who was fielding at that position took the catch.

Pujara reacts to his dismissal at press conference

Pujara was absolutely livid with himself after the way in which he got out. After the end of day's play, Pujara, in the virtual press conference said that it was the only way he thought he could have dismissed. He further added that there was no technical error responsible for his departure. "That is something which I can't do as a batsman. It was unlucky, I would just say that because that's the only way I thought I could have got out. I was batting really well, I was playing my shots. The way I was seeing the ball, everything was going perfect but that was the most unfortunate way one can imagine. A bit disappointed but there's nothing which I can do as a batsman, there was no technical error," Pujara said. Talking about the vital 119-run partnership with Pant that steered the team out of danger, Pujara said: "It's been a crucial partnership for us and I hope this continues. I love batting with him. I'm really happy with the way overall he's playing. He still has to learn a few more things, he still has to put the team in a commanding position because he is capable of that and he's missing out on hundreds. I'm sure he will learn from this but it is good that he is in form," Pujara added.
