The visitors had a major top-order collapse on Day 1 with the absence of captain Rohit Sharma, who recently tested positive for Covid-19. In his absence, star pacer Jasprit Bumrah is currently leading the team. Digging their own grave at 98 for five, India were rescued by Pant, who staged a comeback for India single-handedly and slammed 146 runs off 111 balls, including 19 fours and four sixes. The top-order faltered under pressure from the home side’s bowling department, with Shubman Gill (17), Cheteshwar Pujara (13), Hanuma Vihari (20) and Virat Kohli (11) losing their wickets cheaply. Ravindra Jadeja (83*) and Mohamed Shami (0*) will resume batting for India on Day 2 and will be aiming to add more runs on the scoreboard. Meanwhile, James Anderson has been in dominating form for England’s bowling department and has taken three wickets. Matthew Potts bagged two dismissals, Ben Stokes and Joe Root took a wicket each.
