Jasprit Bumrah goes past Wasim Akram. The India pacer now has the most wickets by an Asian bowler in the SENA countries.

Overview

  • India’s 471 in the first innings was powered by centuries from Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill (147) and vice-captain Rishabh Pant (134), with Pant surpassing MS Dhoni’s record for most Test centuries by an Indian wicketkeeper.
  • England recovered strongly thanks to Ollie Pope’s unbeaten 100 and a 122-run partnership with Ben Duckett before being bowled out for 465.
  • Jasprit Bumrah claimed a five-wicket haul to stifle England’s momentum and secure India a slender six-run lead.
  • On Day 3, India resumed their second innings and reached 90/2, with KL Rahul contributing 47* and Shubman Gill still at the crease when rain halted play.
  • A slim lead of six runs and looming rain have left the Test finely balanced heading into Day 4.
