Ind vs Eng 2nd Test, Day 4: What happened in the second session?

 

Starting the second session at 192/6, England lost their skipper Ben Stokes to a direct hit by Shreyas Iyer. However, Ben Foakes and Tom Hartley showed resistance by putting together 55 runs and evading the inevitable for a long time, before Bumrah was brought into the attack to break the partnership as he got Foakes caught and bowled and India England were eight down. 

 

The visitors though surpassed their highest total on Indian soil as Bumrah and Mukesh Kumar shared the last two wickets among themselves. England were bowled out for 292, adding 100 runs and losing six wickets in the 26.4 overs bowled in the second session. The series is now levelled at 1-1. 

2:15 PM

India win by 106 runs

 

Over Summary: 1LB W; England 292-10 after 69.2 overs

Tom Hartley (36), James Anderson (5); Jasprit Bumrah 17.2- 4- 46-3

 

Now it is Bumrah’s turn to try and get England out. But Anderson goes off strike again thanks to a leg bye. Hartley will face him now. Bowled him and there it is, the win for India, just ahead of Tea. Hartley has been cleaned up and India won by 106 runs to make it 1-1 in the five-match series before a 10-day break. 

 

2:12 PM

No Tea so far

 

Over Summary: 1 0 0 0 1 4; England 291-9 after 69 overs

Tom Hartley (36), James Anderson (5); Ravichandran Ashwin 18-2-72-3

 

So Ashwin is in operation just before Tea to try and take his 500th wicket and he has Anderson to face five of his balls at least. Here we go. Reverse sweep on the first one. Forward defence on the second. Well played on the third. Reverse sweep on the fourth and he is off strike as well. 

 

So Hartley will face the last ball before Tea presumably.  And he will hit it for a four to get England past 290 here. Still, Tea has not been called it seems. 

 

2:07 PM

Anderson survives

 

Over Summary: 0 1 w 0 0 4; England 285-9 after 68 overs

Tom Hartley (31), James Anderson (0); Mukesh Kumar 5-1-26-1

 

Anderson had said it would be over in 60-70 overs. So far 54 overs have been bowled in the day and he is here to face Mukesh as India is one wicket away from victory and England needs 118 runs to win. 

 

So we will have the 69th over as Anderson survives the three balls and hits the third one for a four as well. It is now the joint second-highest total for England in the fourth innings in Asia. 

 

2:03 PM

Mukesh Kumar’s first wicket of the Vizag Test

Bumrah on Indian soil has been magical as Hartley takes a single and exposes Bashir to Mukesh Kumar, who gets his first wicket of the Test as Bashir edges onto the keeper.  

2:00 PM

Bumrah pitches it outside the pitch

 

Over Summary: 0 0 0 0 N 0 0; England 280-8 after 67 overs

Tom Hartley (30), Shoaib Bashir (0); Jasprit Bumrah 17-4-46-2

 

After bowling in the mid-130s, Bumrah changed the speed of the last ball of the over he bowled to Ben Foakes to get the Englishman caught and bowled. He is looking to get Bashir out now. 

 

He already has eight wickets to his name and needs only two more to get his first 10-wicket haul in a Test match. A no-ball as Bumrah went for the slower yorker this time around and missed the entire pitch to land his ball. 

 

Dravid is already sipping his tea, while it is at least two overs away for the players. 

 

1:54 PM

India lose the second review

 

Over Summary: 0 0 B4 0 0 0; England 279-8 after 66 overs

Tom Hartley (30), Shoaib Bashir (0); Mukesh Kumar 4-1-21-0

 

Nearly a catch there. No, it has been called byes and four runs to the English total added. There is yet another review for caught behind and it is against Tom Hartley off the bowling of Mukesh Kumar. The on-field call is not out. 

 

However, both Mukesh and KS Bharat appealed vehemently and India would lose their second review here as Hartley survives. Mukesh is bowling well in this spell of his as India looks to wrap things up before Tea. 

 

1:49 PM

Bumrah gets Foakes and England are 8 down

 

Over Summary: 4 0 0 0 0 W; England 275-8 after 65 overs

Ben Foakes (36), Tom Hartley (30); Jasprit Bumrah 16-4-45-2

 

Jasprit Bumrah comes into the attack for India as they keep on barging in to finish the game before Tea here. They have nearly 30 minutes to do it. And Bumrah needs just one over as he gets Ben Foakes caught and bowled and breaks the 55-run stand for the eighth wicket.  

 

1:42 PM

50-partnership between Foakes and Hartley

 

Over Summary: 1 0 0 0 0 1; England 269-7 after 64 overs

Ben Foakes (32), Tom Hartley (30); Mukesh Kumar 3-0-21-0

 

Mukesh Kumar, the most unsuccessful bowler of the match for the Indian team is into the attack to try and break this 50-run partnership. At 52, this is the highest partnership in this innings for England what a time to bring it up. 

 

1:37 PM

Umpire’s call out, it is umpire’s call on DSR, but batter remains not-out, here’ why

 

Over Summary: 1 4 1 1 0 1; England 269-7 after 63 overs

Ben Foakes (31), Tom Hartley (29); Ravichandran Ashwin 17-2-66-3

 

Finally the breakthrough. Does Ashiwn have his 500th wicket here? It was arevse sweep and hit Hartley on his arms which are not attached to the gloves. The original decision was out by the umpire and he reviewed it straight away. 

 

The replays and Ultraedge show there is no contact with the bat. It has clearly come off the arm. But the third umpire is looking for the LWB now and it is the umpire’s call on impact and hitting the wickets, 

 

But it will remain not-out as the umpire gave it out for caught and not leg before wicket as is being pointed out by Chris Gaffaney to Rohit Sharma who is saying that if it is the umpire’s call, it must be out because you gave it out. 

 

1:29 PM

Hartley hits a four

 

Over Summary: 0 0 4 0 0 0; England 261-7 after 62 overs

Ben Foakes (29), Tom Hartley (23); Kuldeep Yadav 15-0-60-1

 

The partnership between Hartley and Foakes is growing and looking concerning for India. 

 

1:28 PM

Ben Foakes is here for redemption

 

Over Summary: 0 1 0 0 2 0; England 257-7 after 61 overs

Ben Foakes (29), Tom Hartley (19); Ravichandran Ashwin 16-2-58-3

 

Ben Foakes is here for redemption and he is looking to score big to lessen the damage of Stokes' run-out caused by his reckless running. 

 

1:26 PM

Over Summary: 1 0 0 1 4 1; England 254-7 after 60 overs

Ben Foakes (27), Tom Hartley (18); Kuldeep Yadav 14-0-56-1

 

150 has come up for England and it is the first time on Indian soil in fourth innings. 

 

1:25 PM
