India Vs England 1st Test Day 4 Highlights August 7 2021

Rain did everything it could to deny us some amazing quality of cricket the last couple of days, but cricket’s emerged as the real deal today with both teams enjoying a rollercoaster of a ride. It was England’s turn first to hit some lows with early departures of Burns and Crawley, but all that wobble vanished quickly in the second session with Root piling on the runs, scripting his first ton in three years on home soil while at it. The comeback appeared good enough to post an intimidating target until Bumrah produced yet another bowling masterclass (claimed a fifer) to dismiss the England skipper, and the team’s hopes in a jiffy. Defending a not-so-safe total, England sprayed all around and conceded one too many boundary balls to KL Rahul who feasted on his fine form from the first innings, only to nick the wicket-hungry Broad late in the day. 157 runs, 9 wickets and a minimum of 98 overs(less chances of rain, mind) waiting. This is set up for proper theatre finish. Who will blink first? Join us early tomorrow to catch all the action from the final day…
