First, Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill scored a couple of centuries. Newcomer Devdutt Padikkal and Sarfraz Khan’s half security. Then the two tailenders were unhitched. Kuldeep Yadav and Janpreet Bumrah added 45 runs for an unbroken ninth wicket stand. Both unbeaten at the crease at the end of the second day. 27 runs from 55 balls by Kuldeep. Bumrah scored 19 runs off 55 balls with the bat. At the end of play on Friday, India’s first innings score was 473/8. Team India has taken a huge lead of 255 runs. The anger of the match is in the hands of Rohit. In front of England (India vs England Test) in Dharamshala Test, the remaining three days are just a fight to save the match.
The struggle of India’s noir middle and lower order batsmen is being admired at all levels. With a gap of just 4 runs, England tried to return the two century batsmen Rohit and Shubman back to Satch. But Devasatta and Sarfraz stood up. The duo added 97 runs for the fourth wicket. Sarfraz returned with 56 runs off 60 balls. 90 with a strike rate of 03. He hit 8 fours and a six in the innings. Radiek played Test and scored 65 runs.
Even after that, the English camp tried to get back into the match. England picked up 4 wickets for just 25 runs. However, after 429/8, the two bowlers started fighting. A spin counter cast a pall over the England camp at Dharamshala. Another pacer with boom boom pace. Bumrah proved that he can play an important role with the bat as well. Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill painted the ilbachak picture with the bat, India’s Chadamba middle order batsmen matched the canvas in Rangchang in Dhaka
