England 1st Innings

A. Cook K. Jennings G. Ballance J. Root ...........................3 .........................0 ...................................27 ..............................78 inclined to sit back and let the bowlers dominate and he responded with an impressive counter-attack to hit 78.

But just when Root looked in sight of a third successive test century at Trent Bridge, he fell to a loose shot off Morkel that gave keeper Quinton de Kock one of his four catches.
