    Tendulkar Trophy Test: Akash Deep and Mohammed Siraj struck as India left England at 77/3 in 20 overs at stumps on day two of Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy Test at Edgbaston on Thursday. With the deficit standing a 510 runs and India kept on top thanks to Shubman Gill’s majestic 269, England have a big, big task ahead of them to make a comeback.

    Gill’s magnificent knock, his career-best score in the format, the highest score made by an Indian captain in Tests and by an Indian batter in Tests in England, took the visitors’ to 587 in 151 overs. He also received excellent support from spin-bowling all-rounders Ravindra Jadeja (89) and Washington Sundar (42) for stitching stands of 203 and 144 for sixth and seventh wickets respectively.

    In reply, Akash, getting a game in place of rested Jasprit Bumrah, gave India further advantage by picking 2-36 while Siraj returned with 1-21. Though Harry Brook and Joe Root are unbeaten on 30 and 18 respectively, England have a huge task at their hand on day three.
