Both batted with great intention and scored quick runs for India. Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul shared a half -century partnership in 7.2 overs, the fastest for India in a test in England, with the fastest in 8.2 overs in Trent Bridge in 2018.
Speaking at the BBC Test Match Special, veteran Indian batsman Cheteshwar Pujara’s English pacer Chris Woakes struggle, said: said:
“Chris Woakes is just trying to bowl that-of-off-length. On this pitch, it is not working, and it is definitely not working against KL Rahul; he is batting brilliantly. Things are getting easy only for Indian batsmen. All this has either reduced or picked.”
Meanwhile, a controversial incident erupted on the fourth ball of the 8th over, which was bowled by Josh tongue. The tongue delivered a full length for Jaiswal from around the wicket, and the Indian batsman went for a drive.
Yashasvi Jaiswal missed out on his shot and hit the front pad, and the on-field umpire immediately raised his finger after the England players’ appeal.
Jaiswal then had a long conversation with his partner KL Rahul and decided to use a review. In particular, the left -handed batsman indicated that the DRS was aired on the DRS timer after 15 seconds which was shown at the broadcast.
It did not sit well with England captain Ben Stokes, who immediately accused the umpire Shafudaula and asked them not to send the decision up.
He held a hot discussion with the on-field umpires, and KL Rahul also intervened. There were soles around the ground, but the review was eventually accepted and ball-trekking showed three red.
