    Pitch Report

    It will be a good batting pitch still and might see a little less carry than yesterday. It's a little bit warmer and the pitch really hasn't changed too much. Expect movement early on for the pacers, but not as much as we have seen on day 1," reckon Nick Knight and Sanjay Manjrekar.

  • 9:17 AM (IST) Posted by Aditya Kukalyekar

    Play set to start in a bit!!

    Play on second day is set to start in a bit even as the weather is also great in Dharamsala. However, expect the ball to move a bit in morning

  • 8:55 AM (IST) Posted by Aditya Kukalyekar

    Rohit Sharma has a chance to go past Babar Azam!!

    Rohit Sharma is batting on 52 at the moment!! Can he go score a century? If he does, it will be ninth century for him in WTC history, going past Babar Azam. He will also level with Steve Smith in this aspect.

  • 8:12 AM (IST) Posted by Aditya Kukalyekar

    Welcome!!!

    Hello and Welcome to Day 2 of India vs England!!

    A lot happened on the first day of the Test match with 11 wickets falling and 10 of them being of England. It was a poor show from them after winning a good toss and opting to bat first. Kuldeep Yadav and Ravi Ashwin ran through them picking up five and four wickets respectively. In response, India started well with Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rohit Sharma scoring half-centuries. The latter is still in the middle and will be looking to convert this into a big one. Shubman Gill is also looking strong and India can literally make England chase the leather today. Will they able to do it though? Or Will England fightback? Stay tuned!!!
