Tempers flared again in this riveting England - India Test series as Joe Root clashed with Prasidh Krishna out in the middle on day two of the fifth Test match. Entering the field at 124-2 after Zak Crawley was dismissed for 64, Root entered the fray and was immediately under pressure amid cloudy skies and a swinging pitch.

Root arrived and the pair became embroiled in a back and forth which left England's No. 4 fuming. Prasidh then relieved Siraj and took India through to the break with two wickets in five deliveries; as Jamie Smith nicked high to KL Rahul at second slip and Jamie Overton was trapped LBW for what proved to be the final ball of the session.

Prasidh Krishna opened up about the bond shared within India's pace unit, "With Siraj, we've been playing a lot, I mean, it's been five years now, including time spent together in the IPL (Indian Premier League). We sit together a lot, spend time together. It's the same with Akash Deep. I think the fast bowling unit is looking pretty good."
