India vs England Live Score, 3rd Test Day 4: Jaiswal and Gill look to pile on to Bazball’s misery in Rajkot | Cricket News

Day 3 in Rajkot was a case of Bazball gone overboard, could perhaps cost Stokes’ men the series Cricket – Third Test – India v England – Niranjan Shah Stadium, Rajkot, India – February 17, 2024 England’s Ollie Pope with Ben Stokes and Mark Wood during the match. (REUTERS/Amit Dave) It’s admirable that Bazball hasn’t had more days like the third day in Rajkot. When they go overboard with their intent, dim their game awareness, and waste a great opportunity to seize an unshakeable grip on the match. Joe Root reverse-lapped Jasprit Bumrah to slip, while Ben Stokes slog-swept to long-on and handed the initiative back to a Ashwin-less India. Instead of a handy lead, they were shot out for 319 in their first innings to trail by 126 before India extended the lead to 322 by stumps.

India’s Ravichandran Ashwin celebrates with teammates after taking the wicket of England’s Zak Crawley on the second day of the third test cricket match between India and England, at the Niranjan Shah Stadium, in Rajkot, Friday, Feb. 16, 2024. (PTI) Ashwin’s father Ravichandran on his son’s 500th Test wicket: ‘Turning point was his mother’s idea to switch to spin bowling because of wheezing’ Speaking to the media at the end of second day’s play, R Ashwin dedicated his 500th Test wicket to his father. “It’s been quite a long journey. Firstly I’d like to dedicate this feat to my father. He’s been with me through thick and thin, probably had a heart-attack every time he’s watched me play. His health has probably gone for a toss because of that.” Ashwin’s father, Ravichandran, recalls his son’s journey, which started with tennis ball cricket on the streets of West Mambalam in Chennai. The 500-wicket milestone is an unforgettable moment for me. I’ve been dreaming about for a long time and this wicket will keep playing in my mind …

India vs England Live Score, 3rd Test Day 2: Ravindra Jadeja looks to add to India’s lead after scoring hundred | Cricket News

India vs England 3rd Test Day 2 Live Score: Having scored a century at his home ground on Day 1, Ravindra Jadeja will restart India’s innings on Day 2 at the Niranjan Shah Stadium in Rajkot against England in the third Test. Jadeja was the second highest run scorer for India in the first innings after skipper Rohit Sharma, who also registered a triple figure score. Earlier, India won the toss and opted to bat first in Rajkot. But England quickly left them struggling at 33/3 in the first session before Rohit and Jadeja added 204 runs for the fourth wicket. Then, debutant Sarfaraz Khan marked his first Test innings for India with a quickfire 62 off 66 deliveries, laced with nine fours and one maximum. His innings was brought to an abrupt end after a mix up with Ravindra Jadeja resulted in Sarfaraz’s run out at the non-striker’s end.

India vs England Live Score, 3rd Test: Toss in focus at Rajkot; Stokes set for 100th match, Playing XI updates | Cricket News

Cricket – Third Test – England Practice – Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Rajkot, India – February 14, 2024 England’s Ben Stokes and head coach Brendon McCullum look at the pitch. (REUTERS/Francis Mascarenhas) IND vs ENG: How the Rajkot pitch can favour England more than India “The team management decides the pitch. Not me,” Kuldeep Yadav would say when asked why there have been no akhadas (rank-turners) in the Test series so far. When pressed, he would offer, “Batting is also important.” And leave it at that without getting into the brittleness of India’s batting. That quote about team-management influencing the pitch was perhaps a freudian slip about the worst-kept secret. Not a secret, really, as Rahul Dravid’s numerous pitch walks and long chats with curators through the series have all been done in the open. The pitch doesn’t look too far different from the last time England played a Test here under Alastair Cook in 2016. England made 537 and 260 for 3 declared, and India, who had scored 488, almost panic-collapsed on the last day …
