Yashasvi Jaiswal and Jasprit Bumrah Lead India to a Dominant Position
Cricket fans were treated to a masterclass in dominance as India tightened its grip over England on Day 3 of the second Test match at Edgbaston, Birmingham. After posting a colossal first-innings total of 587, thanks to a stunning double-century by Yashasvi Jaiswal, the Indian bowling attack, led by Jasprit Bumrah, ensured that England couldn’t keep up the pace.
England, in reply, showed flashes of resistance, especially through Joe Root’s resilient 83, but could only manage 407 runs. The pitch, once friendly for batting, began to turn slower by the afternoon of Day 3 — perfect conditions for India’s spinners to get into the act in the second innings.
