What unfolded was a day of high-quality cricket, dominated by England’s batting and punctuated by moments of Indian frustration.
🏟️ Match Context
- Series Status: England leads 2-1 in the five-match series
- Venue: Old Trafford, Manchester
- Toss: England won and chose to bowl
- India First Innings: 358 all out (114.1 overs)
- England First Innings (Day 3): 332/2 (74 overs) at lunch, trailing by 26 runs
🧢 India’s First Innings Recap
India’s total of 358 was built on grit and courage:
- Sai Sudharsan scored a patient 61, anchoring the innings after early wickets
- Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul added a solid 94-run opening stand
- Rishabh Pant, battling a fractured foot, returned to score a valiant 54, drawing comparisons to Anil Kumble’s legendary effort in 2002

🏏 England’s Dominance with the Bat
England’s reply was assertive and calculated:
- Ben Duckett (94) and Zak Crawley (84) forged a 166-run opening stand at over 5 runs per over
- Their aggressive yet composed approach put India’s bowlers under pressure early
- Ollie Pope (70)* and Joe Root (63)* continued the momentum, reaching 275/2 by the end of the first session on Day 3
🌟 Joe Root’s Historic Feat
Root’s innings was not just about runs—it was about legacy:
- He surpassed Rahul Dravid and Jacques Kallis to become the third-highest run-scorer in Test history, trailing only Sachin Tendulkar and Ricky Ponting
- His fluent strokeplay and calm demeanor frustrated Indian bowlers, especially during the morning session
🎯 India’s Bowling Struggles
Despite a decent total, India’s bowlers failed to capitalize:
- Mohammed Siraj and Jasprit Bumrah struggled with line and length, conceding boundaries at regular intervals
- Ravindra Jadeja and debutant Anshul Kamboj picked up a wicket each, but lacked consistency
- Fielding errors, including missed run-outs and dropped catches, added to India’s woes
🔥 Key Moments
- Missed Run-Out: Jadeja’s throw missed the stumps with Root stranded, leaving both Jadeja and Siraj visibly frustrated
- Dropped Catch: Dhruv Jurel missed a tough chance off Pope, allowing England to consolidate
- India’s Reviews: Two unsuccessful LBW reviews against Root cost India their DRS opportunities
🌤️ Pitch & Conditions

- India’s captain Shubman Gill faced criticism for tactical errors, including bowling Bumrah from the less responsive end
- The absence of Virat Kohli’s aggressive leadership was felt, especially as England’s batters dictated terms
🩹 Pant’s Grit & Controversy

- However, former England cricketer David Lloyd controversially suggested Pant was “milking the injury,” sparking debate
