What a match it has been between India and England and after four days of enthralling action, the hosts have emerged triumphant and rightly so! Yashasvi Jaiswal headlined India's performance early on with a splendid double century and later on, Jasprit Bumrah backed it up with a memorable six-wicket haul that was even more special as it came on a placid track. For India, it was another youngster in the form of Shubman Gill who came out to prove a point with a sparkling century as India set a 399-run target for England. The runs turned out to be way too many for England, who despite batting aggressively and keeping themselves in the hunt, fell short of the total by 106 runs. The series is levelled 1-1!

There seems to be a bit of drama on the field with Rohit Sharma involved in a discussion with the umpire.

Jasprit Bumrah starts the proceedings with Zak Crawley on strike. India needless to say, would be looking for some early wickets while England will eye a good start. 


India is currently engaged in a thrilling encounter in the second of the five-match Test series against England and they will be back in action on Day 4 of the Test on February 5, Monday.

India have performed well with the bat in both their innings but their performance have been mostly based on individual big knocks from Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill. Others contributed with short cameos but couldn't lend significant support to them. Mukesh Kumar and Axar Patel couldn't impact in the first innings with the ball as Jasprit Bumrah and Kuldeep Yadav were the ones taking charge. England are likely to come hard at the Indian bowling which will demand Rohit Sharma to be proactive with his captaincy and the bowlers sticking to their plans under pressure. IND vs ENG 2nd Test 2024: Joe Root Sustains Blow on Finger on Day 3, No Indication of His Return to Field.
