Virat Kohli took the charge to guide team India during the team hurdle before the second innings was going to start.
Indian fans and cricket lovers felt obliged on watching Virat Kohli taking the role of a captain on field after India puzzled up to announce 8 captains in a year.
India’s innings –
On Day 2 of the ongoing final Test match between India and England at Edgbaston in Birmingham on Saturday, India was bowled out for 416 runs. In the opening session of Day 2, Ravindra Jadeja pounded out 104 runs off 194 balls, including 13 fours. Jasprit Bumrah, meanwhile, contributed to his team’s 416 run total with an undefeated innings of 31 runs off 16 balls
Edgbaston has witnessed Jasprit Bumrah smashing some of the classically shots as Rishabh Pant’s blood has flown towards the tail-enders.
Jasprit Bumrah becomes a Test player to score the “Most Runs in an Over” and creates a world record as Brian Lara topped the same list with 28 runs before.
India struggled mightily against the top order on Day 1 and eventually fell to 90 for five. However, Rishabh Pant’s innings of 146 runs off of 111 balls on Day 1 at Stumps enabled them to score 338 for seven. While taking five wickets, James Anderson also gave up the most expensive over ever in a Test match. Ben Stokes, Joe Root, Stuart Broad, and Matthew Potts each claimed a dismissal at this time. The visitors, who are up 2-1 in the best-of-five series, will want to capitalise on their momentum and win it.
