Veteran all-rounder Chris Woakes struck in the opening over of India\u2019s second innings when he got one to shape away enough and take the leading edge of a squared up Jaiswal\u2019s bat, which was brilliantly caught by one-handed Joe Root going low to his right at slip, as the left-handed opener fell for a duck.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cWhen you analyse Jaiswal\u2019s dismissal, the delivery that got him out was fuller, but it landed in the same area as the previous one \u2014 which he had handled well. So this is a batter whose mind was slightly muddled. A couple of inches made the difference between a confident stroke and a soft dismissal.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cThis is where greatness lies, in being able to replicate what you did earlier in the series under different pressure. But it\u2019s hard. These are young players, and they\u2019ll have days like this. We need to keep that in perspective,\u201d said Manjrekar on JioHotstar.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
He further talked about how fatigue took a mental toll in young batters Jaiswal and B Sai Sudharsan being out for ducks before lunch on day four\u2019s play. \u201cThis was somewhat on the cards, given how England performed with the bat in the first innings. That little session before lunch today felt like a reality check. And honestly, it\u2019s only human for someone like Yashasvi Jaiswal or Sai Sudharsan to fall in this manner.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cWe\u2019re now expecting the impossible from a young batting line-up that\u2019s done well so far, but is now facing a massive deficit with their backs against the wall. These are situations even seasoned batters struggle with. We saw a bit of tentativeness.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cChris Woakes was smart \u2014 coming around the wicket, bowling one full delivery followed by a short one, which is rare. Jofra Archer also let one rip, and it had real bite. When you look at the batting order, it\u2019s concerning \u2014 especially with Rishabh Pant unlikely to bat. Beyond this, it\u2019s Jadeja and Washington Sundar. We must brace for the worst \u2014 and anything better will be a bonus,\u201d he elaborated.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Stuart Broad, the former England fast bowler, praised Ben Stokes\u2019 for smashing 141, his first Test hundred in two years, as the hosts\u2019 made 669 and grabbed a lead of 311 runs. Stokes has also become just the third player after Sir Garfield Sobers and Jacques Kallis to achieve a rare double of 7,000 runs and 200 wickets.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cBen Stokes isn\u2019t someone typically driven by personal milestones, but this hundred clearly held significance. It had been a couple of years since his last century, and he hadn\u2019t taken a five-wicket haul in eight years prior to this Test \u2014 making it a particularly special week for him at Old Trafford.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u201cEven after reaching the milestone, he added a quick 40 to give England a chance to bowl three testing overs at India. It was also an emotional knock \u2014 a tribute to his late father. But what will mean even more to him is if it contributes to an England victory,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
