Resuming at 317/4, India started well with skipper Virat Kohli and all-rounder Ravichandran Ashwin taking India over the 350-run mark before Ali removed Kohli for a brilliant 167 and then dismissed stumper Wriddhiman Saha (3) and Ravindra Jadeja (0).
Ashwin (47 not out) and debutant Jayant Yadav (26 not out) were at the crease when the umpires called for lunch.
