Day 2nd in Dharamsala England vs India

Hello everyone ! 

Today I discuss about test match between England vs India 2nd day in Dharamsala. 

Well, the end result of the day's play was more or less down the expected path, but we took a circuitous route to get there. Rohit Sharma and Shibman Gill scored brilliant centuries, but then Ben Stokes and James Anderson, who bowled for the first time in the series, got them both with special deliveries. Sarfraz Khan and Devdut Padikal then scored half-centuries, but did not close the door for England. However, Kuldeep Yadav and Jasprit Bumrah now put on an unbeaten 45 to take India to a lead of 255. They still have two wickets to go.

This is a wrap from the other day. It has been a brilliant day of batting from India, and they are all set to win the series 4-1. From Miller, Monga, Ranjeet and team, good night! 4.50pm Well, it's been an interesting day, with England having their moments... but the final narrative is one of one-way traffic for India. A steady run rush at the top of the order, centuries each for Rohit and Gill, and half-centuries for the rest of the top five, extended the lead beyond England's substandard first innings of 218.
