England captain Eoin Morgan: "I’d have done the same and bowled. I was very happy with our approach, the openers set the tone. Jonny and Jason have set the pace like that for a while now. It’s different circumstances, and we’re unsure how the pitch will play after two days.
"They are always good batting wickets in the subcontinent, they are always a bit slow, with unpredictable bounce and a bit of turn so we’ll have to see how it goes. We have had a lot of down time, but hopefully we can get a full day’s play in."
