4th Test: Jaiswal, Gill Take India To 34/1 After Root Remains Unbeaten On 122 In England’s 353 (Ld)
JSCA International Stadium: Young batters Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill remained not out on 27 and 4 respectively to lead India to 34/1 at lunch on day two’s play in the fourth Test at the JSCA International Stadium, after Joe Root remained unbeaten on 122 in England’s first innings score of 353, here.
As of now, England are leading over India by 319 runs, with Jaiswal giving a settled look and the pitch not showing much tricks. In response to England’s 353, India lost captain Rohit Sharma early after he pushed forward to a length ball from James Anderson and got a healthy nick behind to keeper Ben Foakes.
Jaiswal, the leading run-scorer in the series, was cautious against fast-bowlers early on, and even survived an outside edge due to playing with soft hands off Robinson. He then played back-to-back fours – via drive and whip off pads – against Anderson, before giving the same treatment to Robinson in the last over before lunch.
