Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill help India dominate day 1
After being invited to beat first under a clear sky and a shiny sun, visitors fully used the conditions. Starting with a solid opening stand of 91 points between Kl Rahul and Centurion Jaiswal,, Indian strikers have never seemed uncontrollable. The culmination of the sleeves occurred during the last session when the skipper Shubman Gill – which had struggled abroad – made the trend with a brilliant century.
With late half a century of Rishabh pantsIndia appeared firmly to the orders before day 2. On the other hand, the quisors of England seemed largely ineffective on what seems to be the Belter of a stick in the stick. Despite the seizure of two quick counters before lunch, they continued to flee the races at a quick pace throughout the day. The only light point was the skipper

The English side must find a clue with the ball, with an important Indian stick to come. Apart from the skipper Ben StokesOthers must also intensify and offer more support if they want to bring their team back to the competition. Stokes, which picked up two key counters and led forward in a differently difficult outing for hosts.
The local team must refine their alignment and use strategic bowling plans, such as a variable rhythm and the implementation of attack fields, to create pressure and induce errors from Indian drummers. With the field that should stay good on the second day, the match should bring a high -level cricket.

Fairly terrible day of England today. The bad decision at launch has played badly, and the bowlingal attack is one of the weakest that I can remember! The Indian drummer played well, but it was not a competition! #Engvind

Perfect start for the series for India. Jaiswal continues his dream test, Skipper Gill with a shiny blow and a patient 50 for the pants. Has capitalized on friendly conditions and will have to continue tomorrow #Engvind

360/3 on the day of opening an outside test. We are not used to such dashboards by India late, but it is refreshing. India has the bowling alley compared to England to create something from this docile terrain, so beat long enough to give England a difficult period with the bat#Engvind

How is the preparation of ashs? #Engvind

You really don’t know what people were waiting for with this bowling attack? Never take 20 counters. Hopefully Atkinson and Archer adapt to the next match and in wood at some point if we are lucky. #Engvind
