Ind vs Eng 3rd Test: Trott feels England adapted different approach on Day 1

The former England batsman credited stalwart Joe Root for his stunning display with the willow. He will resume Day 2 with the score of an unbeaten 99 runs, which came off 199 deliveries, including nine boundaries. If Root scores a century, he will draw level with Hashim Amla in the tally of international centuries

After the first day of play at Lord`s Cricket Ground, former England batsman Jonathan Trott analysed the English side`s changing approach with the bat.

"It was an interesting day, starting right from the toss. England took a different approach compared to the first two Tests. I thought Ollie Pope came out in typical `Bazball` style, attacking early, but quickly realised that this wasn`t that kind of pitch. Credit to him for adjusting his game," Trott stated on `Match Centre Live`.

He also credited stalwart Joe Root for his stunning display with the willow. He will resume Day 2 with the score of an unbeaten 99 runs, which came off 199 deliveries, including nine boundaries. If Root manages to complete his century, he would then draw level with former South African batsman Hashim Amla, for the tally of international centuries. The sixth-highest century scorer, Amla has 55 tons to his name, whereas Root sits right below with 54 centuries.
