    The Batting From Harry Brook And Jamie Smith Was Second To None: Jonathan Trott

    Like Shubman Gill: Former England batter Jonathan Trott heaped heavy praise on outstanding knocks from Harry Brook (158) and Jamie Smith (184 not out), who were involved in a 303-run partnership that pushed the host from 84/5 to 407, in the first innings of second Test against India at Edgbaston.

    Brook and Smith rescued England from a tricky spot to a respectable total after losing Joe Root (22) and captain Ben Stokes (0) on successive balls early on day three. However, a late surge from Indian pacers Akash Deep (4-88) and Mohammed Siraj (6-70) helped the visitors to make inroads and take the 180-run first innings lead which swelled to 244 runs at stumps on Friday.

    "One thing I can say is that everyone who attended Day 3 of this Test will go home thoroughly satisfied. The quality of cricket was outstanding. The batting from Harry Brook and Jamie Smith was second to none. Yes, we can talk about some questionable captaincy and bowling lengths, but credit to the English batsmen. Then, the way India came out shows they clearly had a discussion in the dressing room about intent. They wanted to be positive and ensure they got enough runs on the board to bowl England out," Trott said on JioHotstar.
