England have thus levelled the three-match series 1-1 and set up a tantalising series decider in the third and final match that will be played at Lord’s on Sunday. On what turned out to be a tricky pitch, India set England a target of 234 to chase and the hosts had to grind it out. Opener Ben Duckett fell for a golden duck first ball of the innings itself to Jasprit Bumrah and his partner Jacob Bethell fell in the fourth over after scoring just four runs.

Two deliveries into left-arm seamer Sam Curran’s first over of the afternoon – the sort of variety that has troubled the 39-year-old in the past, Virat Kohli walked up to his longtime teammate to share a short message: “Take your time.” The run-rate was 6.43, with Kohli ensuring the intent shown by skipper Shubman Gill at the top wasn’t going to be compromised. For the second time in this series, the conditions offered an even contest. And the one who was put to the maximum test was Rohit, a batsman who right through his 47-ball stay struggled for rhythm. The right-hander rarely makes ugly runs. He is not just old-school, but stylish as well. But not on Thursday, when the England attack made him uncomfortable. It was Jofra Archer, who troubled him first up. By the end of the third over, Rohit should already have been walking back to the dressing room. A …
