What will be India’s strategy on the fourth day.
Highlights
- India will have to cover England’s innings quickly today
- Indian bowlers will have to put full emphasis
- Score level in the first innings
Apart from Rahul’s best performance (100 runs), Ravindra Jadeja (72 runs) and Rishabh Pant (74 runs) contributed significantly during India’s first innings. It will be a challenge for India to bat on such a pitch where some balls are jumping a little after the pitch and some turn is also being received. After being reduced to 387 runs of the Indian innings, Jack Crolya wasted the precious time and ensured that he had to face only one aggressive over of Jaspreet Bumrah. Due to which England will hit the field with a slight lead of two runs on the fourth day.
Earlier, like England’s innings, India also decided to bathe on a double -speed pitch and scored at a speed of less than 3.5 runs per over. Indian lower order batsmen made a lot of marigold but could not increase the run rate. After scoring a third consecutive half -century, Chris Woakes was caught behind the wicket in an attempt to make a glance in the leg side. Akash Deep (seven) managed to turn two LBW decisions given by the field umpire with the help of DRS but after hitting a six, he was out.
After the tee break, the England bowlers made a good comeback and harassed the Indian batsmen with a stringent line length. On the out of Reddy Stokes, he was caught by the batter Jamie Smith. He shared a 72 -run partnership with Jadeja. Jadeja then added 50 runs with Sundar but was dismissed on the important occasion, which led to the team to take the lead in the first innings. He hit a six and eight fours in the 131 -ball innings. Earlier, Rishabh Pant scored an exciting half -century despite his left index finger pain. But run out just before lunch. Pant (74 runs, 112 balls) was run out trying to steal runs in the last over of the first season.
England captain Ben Stokes covered with great throw wickets, and Pant was out of the crease at that time. Rahul and Pant, however, shared 141 runs in 198 balls for the fourth wicket and strengthened India’s hold on the match. On the first day of the match, Pant, who was struggling with the pain of injury in the finger while wicketkeeping, expressed his intentions in the first over of the day.
