Shubman Gill made history as the first Indian and Asian captain to score a double century in a Test match in England, surpassing previous records and joining an elite group of Indian captains with such achievements.
Yashasvi Jaiswal scored a memorable century in the first Test against England at Headingley, showing resilience despite hand cramps, and celebrated passionately, inspiring a young cricket fan who shared the moment online. His innings marked a significant achievement, placing him among India's elite in English Test history.
On day four of the India vs England 4th Test, Joe Root struck to dismiss Yashasvi Jaiswal for 37 runs, as India chased a target of 192 to win. At stumps on day 3, India was 40 for no loss, with Rohit Sharma and Jaiswal at the crease. India needs 108 runs to win, and the aggressive start by the openers suggests a decisive finish, but both batsmen will need to refocus on the new day. England will look to Shoaib Bashir for a comeback, while India's spinners Ashwin and Kuldeep set up the potential series-clinching win.
Ravichandran Ashwin's 35th five-wicket haul in Tests draws him level with Anil Kumble, as India gains control in the Ranchi Test against England. England's dismal performance leaves India with a target of 152 to win, with the hosts already leading the series 2-1. Young English spinners are thriving under Ben Stokes' captaincy, with Shoaib Bashir becoming the latest to take a five-for in his Test debut.
R Ashwin made a mental switch to adapt to the Ranchi pitch, focusing on side spin due to low bounce, and not using his trademark carrom ball much due to a knee issue. He took a five-wicket haul in England's second innings, helping India restrict the lead and leaving them 152 runs away from victory. Ashwin also praised Kuldeep Yadav's bowling and Dhruv Jurel's batting performance, emphasizing the importance of team contributions over personal milestones.
India dominated day three of the Test match against England, with England collapsing in their second innings. India's spinners, led by Ravichandran Ashwin, caused chaos on a turning pitch, while Dhruv Jurel's resilient batting reduced India's first-innings deficit. England's hopes of winning the series are fading as India needs only 152 more runs to win with all their wickets intact.
Ben Duckett's stunning innings of 133 runs off 118 balls in the second Test against India in Rajkot has helped England stay in the game, trailing by just 238 runs going into day three. Duckett's aggressive batting against R Ashwin, who claimed his 500th Test wicket, showcased his maturity and flair, marking a remarkable comeback for the player who had faced challenges in the past. His partnership with Joe Root and potential to continue his rampage on day three gives England hope for a competitive performance in the match.
Despite Brendon McCullum's bold claim that his team would have a go at chasing 600, England fell short of a target of 399 in their Test match against India. India's Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill's strong performances, along with Jasprit Bumrah's match-winning spells, led to India's victory. England's batting struggled, with only Zak Crawley and Ben Stokes making notable scores. Despite the defeat, England remains confident as they head to Abu Dhabi for a break before the next match in Rajkot.
Yashasvi Jaiswal's remarkable double century in the second India vs England Test has garnered praise, with former England cricketer Kevin Pietersen highlighting the young opener's mistake in getting out to James Anderson. Despite this, Jaiswal's innings of 209 runs off 290 balls was a standout performance, earning him accolades from both teammates and opponents. At 22, he became the third youngest Indian to achieve a double century in Test cricket, showcasing his immense potential in the sport.
Jasprit Bumrah's exceptional bowling performance, including a 10th five-wicket haul, puts India in a commanding position on Day 2 of the second Test against England after Yashasvi Jaiswal's double century. England was bowled out for 253, giving India a 143-run first-innings lead. Bumrah's impactful spells, combined with Jaiswal's remarkable innings, have positioned India well, but they need to remain vigilant and perform effectively on day three to secure a win.
Ollie Pope's remarkable batting performance, scoring 148 not out in the fourth day of the India vs England Test match in Hyderabad, has turned the game around for England. Despite initial struggles and a recent shoulder surgery, Pope's aggressive yet calculated approach at the crease has defied India's formidable bowling attack, earning praise from captain Joe Root. His innings, characterized by audacious shot-making and resilience, has shifted the momentum in England's favor, showcasing his potential as a key player in the team's lineup.
