Ashwin’s Milestone

Ravichandran Ashwin made history as he claimed his 500th Test wicket during Duckett’s onslaught. An already exciting cricket day took on additional significance with this incredible accomplishment. With his historic wicket of Zak Crawley, Ashwin gave India a much-needed breakthrough and temporarily stopped England’s onslaught of runs.

India’s Resilience

Even with Duckett’s superiority, England’s bowling attack demonstrated determination. They were able to eliminate India for 445 runs in the first innings early in the second session of Day 2. Even though India had trouble at first, Ashwin, Jurel, and Bumrah’s efforts allowed them to battle back.
