Virat Kohli's Juggernaut continued to dominate the Day3 of the third Test against England at Trent Bridge in Nottingham. Kohli notch up his 23rd Test ton and 58th International hundred in the five Tests match series on English soil.
Resuming from the overnight score of 124 for two, both Cheteshwar Pujara and Virat Kohli played cautiously at the start of the session with slightly overcast but warmer conditions.
