4th Test: Spinners Put England On Top As India Trail By 134 Runs
JSCA International Stadium: Spinners Shoaib Bashir and Tom Hartley played starring roles to help England reach a commanding position at the stumps on Day Two of the fourth Test against India at the JSCA International Stadium here on Saturday.
Bashir took 4-84 and bowled an unbroken spell of 31 overs to get his first four-wicket haul in red-ball cricket, while Hartley scalped 2-47 on a pitch which is providing turn and variable bounce to leave India in trouble at 219/7 and trail England by 134 runs.
Things could have been worse for the hosts if not for the unbroken 42-run stand, off 106 balls, between Dhruv Jurel (30 not out) and Kuldeep Yadav (17 not out). The final session began with Sarfaraz Khan surviving two run-out chances, followed by Yashasvi Jaiswal, resuming from 54 not out, taking three boundaries off Bashir.
