2nd Test: Smith And Brook Continue To Keep Bowlers At Bay As England Cross 350-mark

By IANS News July 05, 2025 • 11:16 AM View: 382

Jamie Smith and Harry Brook continued making a truckload of runs to keep the rattled and listless Indian bowlers at bay and take England beyond the 350-mark on Day Three of the second Test of the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy series at Edgbaston here on Friday.

England reached 355/5 in 75 overs at tea and now trail India by 232 runs, with Smith and Brook unbeaten on 157 and 140 respectively. There was no stopping the pair in the second session as their unbroken thrilling sixth-wicket stand is now at 271 runs off 323 deliveries, even as Brook got his ninth Test hundred off 137 balls.
