  • Shreyas Iyer’s explosive knock: The middle-order batter hammered 78 off 64 balls, accelerating India’s innings.
  • England’s bright start fades: Ben Duckett fought through injury to score a quick 34 off 22 balls, but England’s openers failed to capitalize on the momentum.
  • Bowling brilliance: Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav broke England’s backbone, while Harshit Rana and Hardik Pandya mopped up the lower order.
  • Sunil Gavaskar’s criticism: The cricket legend slammed Tom Banton for wasting a review, calling it a “schoolboy error”.

With England reeling at 179/8, India is just two wickets away from sealing the series with a dominant performance.
