Kuldeep Yadav’s (5-72) outstanding exhibition of left-arm wrist spin on Thursday, marked by guile and craft, ripped the heart out of England’s batting.
Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj had been desperately unlucky in their extended opening spells, going past the outside edges of Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett after Ben Stokes opted to bat. Riding on their good fortune—Crawley who survived a close leg before shout, was lucky that India didn’t opt for the review when he was caught at short-leg by Sarfaraz Khan and was dropped by bowler Ravindra Jadeja — the openers put together their fifth half-century stand of the series.
