Player Of The Match
  • 150.6

    OUT! Stumped. Shoaib Bashir to Mohammed Siraj. Carrom ball back of a length, off stump down the track pulling, Play and Miss (Leg Side), by Smith. End of India's First Innings. England struck back sharply after Tea, wrapping up the Indian innings at 587. Shubman Gill was dismissed for a sensational 269, falling agonizingly short of a well-deserved triple century. Shoaib Bashir delivered the final blow with a clever carrom ball, ending the resistance of the last-wicket pair. While India will be disappointed not to have pushed the score even further, they are firmly in control. England now faces a massive challenge with the bat. The pitch remains good for batting, but the scoreboard pressure is immense. Join us in another 10 minutes.
