Cricket News Desk. The Leeds Test being played between India and England is at a thrilling turn. On the third day of the match, England’s first innings ended for 465 runs. On the basis of the first innings, Team India got a lead of just 6 runs. By the third day stumps, India have scored 90 runs for 2 wickets. In this way, the team’s lead has been 96 runs. KL Rahul is unbeaten by scoring 47 runs, while captain Shubman Gill is also playing 6 runs. The game had to be finished about 25 minutes earlier due to poor light. The Indian team started poorly in the second innings. Yashasvi Jaiswal became a victim of Bridan cars by scoring just 4 runs. After this, Sai Sudarshan, playing his debut test, supported Rahul. Both of them easily scored runs. They shared a 66 -run partnership. Sudarshan was dismissed for 30 runs in 48 balls. Harry Brook missed a century
Harry Brook (99) missed a century by a run, before Jasprit Bumrah took five wickets. England’s innings ended before tea rest. Bumrah finished England’s innings by dismissing Josh Tong (11), but before that Chris Woakes (38 off 55 balls) scored fast runs in a lower order and brought the hosts to India close to 471. England’s lower order turned India’s hopes of taking a strong lead, making the second innings of the two teams even more important.
Famous Krishna (three wickets for 128) dismissed Jamie Smith (40) and Brook (99 runs from 112 balls, 11 fours, two sixes), but failed to control the run speed in 20 overs thrown. Bumrah (five wickets for 83) was India’s best bowler throughout the innings. He took five or more wickets in an innings for the 14th time in Test cricket. India’s fielders disappointed in the match. Yashasvi Jaiswal gave a second life to Brook by scoring 82 runs off Bumrah. However, Brook could not take advantage of these occasions and failed to score a century and was caught by Shardul by scoring 99 off Pradeesh in the 88th over.
No wicket on second new ball
India took a new ball after 80 overs, but the team could not use it well. Vokes hit sixes on the third man on the consecutive balls of Pradish on the midwicket and at the end of the session. He was bowled by Bumrah while Mohammad Siraj (two wickets for 122) ended the innings of Bridan Kerus (two for 22). Earlier, England started the day by 209 runs for three wickets and added 118 runs in 28 overs in the morning session.
India took wickets of yesterday’s century Oli Pope (106) and England captain Ben Stokes (20) in the morning session. Like the second day, on the third day, Prasad, Shardul Thakur and Mohammad Siraj failed to bowl accurately like their fellow fast bowler Bumrah. Brook, who was dismissed on Bumrah’s no ball before the second day’s play was over, got a life on a personal score of 46 runs when wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant failed to take his catch on the fast -spinned ball of left -arm spinner Ravindra Jadeja. However, the morning session was named after Brook, who played many attractive shots. Ijd bowled two loose balls in the first over of the day, one of which Brook hit a four at the point and the second on the midwicket. Brook adopted a strategy to play against fast bowlers including Bumrah and drive a drive on extra cover. Ijd dismissed the Pope in the second over, who tried to play his short and wide ball, but Pant caught his catch. Stokes also tried to focus on his wicket before he was caught by Pant on Siraj’s ball.
