England vs India: Shubman Gill hits ton as tourists reach 310-5 on day one of second Test after resting Jasprit Bumrah | Cricket News
Shubman Gill reached a hundred when India reached 310-5 on the first day of the second test against England in Edgbaston after Ben Stokes did not hesitate to insert tourists following the fascinating victory that will run during the opening of the series in Headingley.
Stokes had put India to beat in Leeds a little less than two weeks ago and this decision was embarrassed after his opponents stacked the 359-3 on the first day, only for England to have the last laugh by making a pursuit of 371 – their second highest level of tests – on the last day.
The captain of the house was not dissuaded by the sun starting to cross about 10 minutes before the draw in Birmingham on Wednesday and was rewarded for the bowling alley for the first when the impressive Chris Woakes (2-59) forced Kl Rahul (2) to cut the ninth.
However, important blows of the visit to the skipper Gill (114 no 216 balls) – which marked a seventh century patient and second in as many games since he assumed the captain – and Yashasvi Jaiswal (87 out of 107), which were built on a slow land, meant that India was happy at Stums, in particular at 211-5.
Gill and Ravirand Jadeja (41No) shared a stand of sixth uninterrupted window of 99 after uniting their forces after two counters for three points of 208-3, including that of the dangerous Rishabh Pant for 25.
Jaiswal was not satisfied, however, when he dropped, 13 takes place what would have been a sixth tonne of test, fourth against England and second in this series after his 101 at Headingley – the livid left after having driven a large stoke ball and a border behind.
And the former head coach of India, delighted Shastri, was not satisfied either when he was announced in the morning that the rhythm of the spearhead of Jasprit Bumrah would sit on the game while he manages his workload.
Bumrah is committed to playing three of the five tests after a back injury last winter and will be absent when England, in all likelihood, will try another pursuit later in the match on the site where they eliminated a 378 national record against India in 2022.
England takes five counters after choosing to play Birmingham
Woakes, bowling on his field and the air much sharper than him in Headingley, could not have had three counters in his opening fate only for two Critics of LBW to stick to the call of the referee on the height.
But the man of the Warwickshire took into account Rahul, with a striker who had played in a way so composed in Leeds without knowing whether to play or leave woakes before the designer does the breakthrough.
Jaiswal, subjected to one of these LBW criticisms, sewn from 80 with Karun Nair (31) – The latter was promoted to No. 3 after Sai Sudharsan was abandoned – while the pair is nestled in a broken capricious opening of Josh Tongue, before Nair then flashes a boom in Brydon’s delivery (1-49) Lunch.
Jaiswal played kicks through the gap and it seemed that the best chance of England would take it out would be by sliding it with short bullets, only for the opening of Waft to Stokes (1-58) outside the stump while his 66-point alliance with Gill was broken.
A double strike after the tea then increased England with the first pants that had marked a few hundred crazy people during the first test, by derogating from the long-term SHOAIB BASHIR SPINNER after a change in transplant of stokes tried the big blow.
Nitish Kumar Reddy (1), brought in the side of India to strengthen the knocking after the collapse of the lower order 7-41 and 6-31 in Leeds, was then thrown by Woakes exhausting the weapons to its sixth ball.
Reddy’s inclusion was one of the three changes for tourists because they aimed to level the series; Seamer Akash Deep and Offinning All-Rounder Washington Sown also coming while Bumrah, Sudharsan and Shardul Thakur have made the place.
Washington argued with the left weapon Kuldeep Yadav to serve as a second spinner of India and obtained the head sign according to its upper striker, although Kuldeep was a greater threat of the nod and could have been useful, especially in the fourth round.
England has been unchanged, which means that the Jofra Archer’s fast launcher must wait at least the third test at Lord’s on July 10 to make its international return to the red ball after four years after the serious elbow and back injuries.
