LONDON, Sept 10 (Reuters) - England batsman Alastair Cook marked his 291st and final test innings in fitting fashion as he reached a century against India on the fourth morning of the fifth test on Monday.
The 33-year-old opener, England's record run scorer in tests, began the day on 46 and moved fluently to 101 not out before lunch as England built a large lead with captain Joe Root also making an unbeaten fifty.
It was left-hander Cook's 33rd test century. (Reporting by Martyn Herman Baldwin, editing by Christian Radnedge)
