England faced a turnaround on Day 2 of the second Test match against India on Saturday, February 3. Jasprit Bumrah displayed his exceptional skills in red-ball cricket, securing a five-wicket haul and putting India in a strong position in the Vizag Test. Bumrah’s delivery to Ben Stokes turned heads, catching Stokes off guard with unexpected movement. Stokes, who was aggressively scoring runs, was left in disbelief after Bumrah’s sensational delivery dismantled his stumps. After Stokes’ departure, Bumrah also dismissed Tom Hartley and then put England out of their misery by claiming his sixth wicket of the innings. Bumrah delivered his best figures of 45/6 on Indian soil, while Kuldeep Yadav took three wickets to bowl out England for 253. With a commanding 143-run lead in the first innings, India maintains a strong position to secure victory in the Vizag Test and level the five-match series at 1-1.
