“450 declare. It’s raining tomorrow. Half day, afternoon, it’s raining,” Harry Brook could be heard telling Shubman Gill via the stump mic. “Bad luck for us,” Shuman Gill could be heard replying. Harry Brook then went onto persuade Shubman Gill to “take the draw”.
India eventually declared their second innings at 427/6, meaning that the visitors had a lead 607 runs. The target for England heading into Sunday’s fifth and final day is 608. England lost opener Zak Crawley (0) and Ben Duckett (25) in the second and fifth overs respectively. While Mohammed Siraj got rid of Zak Crawley, Akash Deep dismissed Ben Duckett.

Akash Deep then struck once again in the 11th over to clean up former England captain Joe Root. Joe Root’s dismissal left England in a spot of bother at 50/3, and Harry Brook (15*) joined Ollie Pope (24*) in the middle. The duo have so far forged 22 runs for the fourth wicket and have their task cut out in what promises to be a thrilling fifth day of the second Test.
England currently lead the five-match series 1-0 following a five-wicket win in the first Test in Leeds last week. The hosts were set a target of 371 runs towards the end of day four of that Test. Zak Crawley (65) and Ben Duckett (149) forged 188 runs for the first wicket, which set an early platform for England’s win. Joe Root (53*), Jamie Smith (44*) and captain Ben Stokes (33) played equally important knocks to take England home.
