England captain Joe Root hit his 21st Test century but India maintained slight upper hand going into what promises to be an enthralling final day of the opening match on Sunday.
Root made 109 to drag his side out of the doldrums and set India a tricky 209-run victory target on the penultimate day of the bowler-dominated contest on Saturday.
Root had top-scored in his side's first innings total of 183 and his century proved the bedrock of England's 303 in the second innings.
India were 52/1 at stumps, still needing 157 runs to go 1-0 up in the five-match series that marks the beginning of a new World Test Championship cycle.
