India vs England 1st Test Day 3: Brook misses ton by 1 run as hosts all out for 465 in first innings

Dubai: It was a close miss for Harry Brook after he fell for 99 on his home ground as England were all out for 465 on Day 3 in the first innings of the first Test against India at Headingley.

The match is finely poised as India's bowling star Jasprit Bumrah claimed five wickets.

England's total, in reply to India's first-innings 471 ensured they had a deficit of just six runs.

When Brook was dismissed just one run shy of three figures, England were still 73 behind at 398-7.

But Chris Woakes, selected to lead the bowling attack in place of the injured Gus Atkinson, got England almost on level terms with a handy 38.

The 36-year old all-rounder, who has a Test century to his credit, struck consecutive sixes off paceman Prasidh Krishna before he was bowled by Bumrah.

Bumrah then wrapped up the innings by bowling Josh Tongue to finish with excellent figures of 5-83 in 24.4 overs.

The 31-year-old has now taken 14 five-wicket hauls in just 46 Tests.

Brook's aggression, in an innings in which he had three reprieves, eventually proved his downfall.

One run shy of what would have been a first Test century at Headingley - and ninth in 26 matches - he mishooked a Krishna bouncer to Shardul Thakur at fine leg.

Brook threw his head back in agony following the end of a typically dashing 112-ball innings featuring 11 fours and two sixes.

He had been caught off a Bumrah no-ball while still on nought in Saturday's last over and on Sunday he was dropped on 46 and 82 - with both those chances ones India should have taken.

Stokes storms off

England resumed on 209-3, 262 runs behind, with Ollie Pope exactly 100 not out after coming in with the hosts in trouble at 4-1.

Pope, having added just six more runs off as many balls, made a careless exit when, trying to cut a wide ball from Krishna, he edged to wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant.

Brook treated Bumrah, widely regarded as the world's leading bowler, with disdain when he advanced down the pitch and drove the paceman through the covers for four.

He then dished out similar treatment to Mohammed Siraj.

But from around the wicket, fast bowler Siraj had England captain Ben Stokes caught behind for 20 with a fine delivery that cut away from the left-hander as he pushed outside off stump.

Stokes, without a Test century for two years, threw his bat in the air in frustration before he walked off.

Brook should have been out on 46 when he pushed forward to left-arm spinner Ravindra Jadeja only for Pant to drop the thin nick.

England were 327-5 at lunch, still 144 runs behind, with Brook 57 not out and Jamie Smith unbeaten on 29.

One over before the new ball became available, Smith pulled a Krishna bouncer for six, even though there were fielders back on the boundary.

Two balls later, on 40, he tried to repeat the stroke but holed out to deep square-leg where Jadeja, realising he was going over the rope, relayed the catch to Sai Sudharsan.

India took the new ball as soon as possible, with England 350-6 off 80 overs.

Brook was missed again on 82 when fourth slip Yashasvi Jaiswal dropped a two-handed catch off a deliberate steer off Bumrah.

At that stage, England were still more than a hundred runs behind and when Brook went into the 90s with a superb lofted drive for six off Siraj it looked as if he would make India pay dearly for shoddy fielding.

But the tourists limited the damage thanks to Bumrah's blistering spell to mop up the tail and leave the match on a knife edge.
