Chennai [India], Dec.17 (ANI): Openers KL Rahul and Parthiv Patel produced a calm and composed performance as India reached 60 for no loss at stumps on the second day of the fifth and final dead-rubber Test against England at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium here on Saturday. Wicketkeeper-batsman Parthiv Patel, who was asked to open the innings in place of injured opener Murali Vijay, remained unbeaten at 28 runs with Lokesh Rahul standing firm at 30 at the end of the day's play. Earlier, resuming at yesterday's score of 284-4, Moeen Ali smashed 13 boundaries and a six in his blistering 146-run knock besides sharing a fourth-wicket partnership of 86 runs with Jonny Bairstow (49).
