Young, initially moving to his left, quickly switched direction, dived, and emerged with an absolute beauty in hand. Jadeja c Will Young b Ajaz Patel 6(22)

Glenn Phillips, right-arm off break, comes into the attack and starts with a ball down the leg side. 

 

Jaiswal blocks the second delivery right under his eyes. Another forward block from Jaiswal. A good stride forward from the Mumbaikar. 

 

India is in deep deep trouble now. Jaiswal is given out onfield and it looks very close as he takes the review. HE IS GONE

 

 

An in-drifter, deceptive and lethal, zips in with the arm, catching him flush on the front leg, right in line with the stumps. There's a faint spike on UltraEdge, the ball seemingly wedged between bat and pad. The tension mounts—if there’s an inside edge, Jaiswal's fate is sealed, as he’s been snapped up at first slip. The TV umpire, meticulously examining each frame, is taking his time.

 

"I’ve got the ball hitting the pad," announces Paul Reiffel, his voice tense. "There’s a gap between bat and ball." All eyes shift to ball-tracking, and the verdict looms: it’s hitting leg stump! OUT! Michael Gough’s on-field call stands firm. Jaiswal, lunging forward, played for the spin but was undone by the cruel straightness. Jaiswal lbw b Phillips 5(16)

 

Sarfaraz Khan, right handed bat, comes to the crease and opens his account with an single thanks to a sweep shot.

Ajaz Patel continues and Kohli blocks the first two deliveries on the pads.

 

The third one turned viscously from the stumps and takes an outside edge. Mitchell takes a low catch. Kohli leans forward, determined to smother the spin, but he isn’t quite to the pitch. The ball dances away, spinning wickedly, just enough to kiss the edge of his bat. It’s a feather-light touch, but Mitchell is ready—his bucket hands poised, his focus unbreakable. He dives low at first slip, snatching the ball just above the ground, sealing a stunning dismissal. Kohli c Mitchell b Ajaz Patel 1(7)

Rishabh Pant, left handed bat, comes to the crease and works the 4th delivery towards short mid-on for no run.
