The Indian team ended the proceedings on Day 2 of
India vs England 1st Test match, with a lead of 175 runs and three wickets in hand at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. India started the third and final session with Jadeja and Kona Bharat in the middle. The duo had already added 21 and they went on to add 47 more to make it a 68-run partnership for the sixth wicket before Bharat was trapped in front by Root to claim his second wicket.
Ravichandran Ashwin was run out quickly and then it was imminent for Jadeja to partner well with Axar and increase the lead further. Jadeja, who had already brought up his fifty, did the same as the two men from Gujarat added 63 for the eighth wicket. At the end of the day’s play, India finished on 421/7, leading by 175 runs.
IND vs ENG 1st Test, Day 2 Session 1 India started the morning session with the wicket of Jaiswal, who was out for 80. Rahul had an early escape as he was dropped off a nought by Ben Foakes. After that, Rahul started to take on the English spinners and runs started to flow. However, Gill, trying to attack too much, got caught on one of his attacking shots to become Tom Hartley’s maiden Test scalp.
Iyer then got together with Rahul and the duo has since been unbeatable, adding 63 for the fourth wicket partnership to take the Indian team to Lucnh at 222/3. The Indians trail by only 24 runs and with Rahul there, having scored a fifty, India is well-suited to take a huge lead.
India vs England 1st Test, Day 2 Session 2
India started the second session with Rahul and Iyer in the middle. However, Rehan Ahmed got Iyer out early after Lunch. But just as it was in the first session, after an early wicket came the partnership and Ravindra Jadeja joined Rahul in the middle. The duo added 65 for the fifth wicket before Rahul hit a half-tracker straight into the hands of the fielder and departed for 86. Kona Bharat joined Jadeja after that and the two of them carried India through to Tea.
