The second day of the fourth Test between India and England witnessed an engaging battle. After England was dismissed for 353 in their first innings, India faced an early setback with the loss of Rohit Sharma’s wicket. However, Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal, the young talents, forged a resilient partnership to resist the England bowling attack. Both batsmen scored steadily until Shoaib Bashir dismissed Gill. The day also saw a controversial moment when England celebrated what they believed was a catch of Yashasvi Jaiswal, but it was deemed grounded by the third umpire after reviewing multiple replays.

England players are so rattled by Yashasvi Jaiswal that they sacrificed all their principles regarding Spirit Of Cricket and started appealing for a grounded catch.
Next, they may finally try to run someone out at the non striker’s end.

Day 2 Proceedings
Earlier, Ollie Robinson, after scoring a career-best 58 runs, threw away his wicket with a questionable reverse sweep shot off Ravindra Jadeja, leading to the end of England’s innings at 353 runs, with Joe Root remaining unbeaten on 122.
England made a strong start in the morning session, frustrating the Indian bowlers before Robinson’s dismissal shifted the momentum in India’s favor.
In response, India lost captain Rohit Sharma early, scoring only 2 runs, and were 34 for 1 at lunch, trailing England by 319 runs. Yashasvi Jaiswal was looking confident at the crease with 27 runs, while Shubman Gill was providing him support with 4 runs before the break.
