5th Test: Early Tea Break Taken After Rain Stops Play Again, India At 85/3 In 29 Overs
Tendulkar Trophy Test: An early tea break was called on the first day of the fifth Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy Test at The Oval after the rain stopped play yet again. At the time of interruption, India are at 85/3 in 29 overs.
Only six overs of play were managed, and in that time, India lost skipper Shubman Gill to a needless run-out. The post-lunch session finally began after a rain delay of over two hours, and Gill found himself struggling against outswing deliveries.
Gill, the leading run-getter of the ongoing series, seemed to have got some stability when a brilliant, punchy cover drive got him a boundary off Jamie Overton. But on the second ball of the 28th over, Gill had a major brain fade when he set off for a non-existent quick single, before slipping a little bit.
