Despite England's Lead, India Remains in Strong Position with Favorable Pitch Conditions

• England's Ollie Pope delivered a masterful unbeaten century, taking England to a lead of 126 runs at the end of Day 3 of the first Test against India in Hyderabad.
• India's Jasprit Bumrah produced a significant spell of reverse-swing bowling, taking two key wickets and keeping India in the game.
• Despite England's lead, India is still considered to be in a better position due to their deep batting lineup and the expected deterioration of the pitch favoring their spinners.
• England's tail-enders still have work to do to extend their lead and set a challenging target for India.
• Former England captain Joe Root praised Pope's innings as a 'masterclass' in batting in subcontinental conditions.
