India vs England Edgbaston 5th Test Day 3 LIVE Score Updates: England Go 8 Down As Mohammed Shami, Mohammed Siraj Strike For India

Ind vs Eng: Wicket

Mohammed Siraj has got the wicket of Stuart Broad. It was a short ball and Broad wanted to hit a boundary on it but skied the ball high in air before Pant could complete the catch behind the stumps.

Ind vs Eng: Wicket

Bairstow is out! Mohammed Shami gets the magic done as he outfoxes Bairstow, who was being a thorn in India’s flesh. He departs on 106 off 140 balls. England are seven down and the tail is open now.

ENG 241/7 (54.1)  

Ind vs Eng: India Lose Review

Jasprit Bumrah hit the front pad of Bairstow and appealed for an LBW. When he failed to convince the umpire, the India skipper decided to go upstairs. Later, ball tracking found it to be missing the leg stump and that saw India lose a review. 

ENG 239/6 (52.5)

Ind vs Eng: Four!

Poor start for Jasprit Bumrah. He bowled it on the legs of Sam Billings, who flicks it for an easy four on fine leg.

ENG 208/6 (46.1)

Ind vs Eng: Match Resumes

A four from Jonny Bairstow to start the second session and with it he races to 95, just five short of a wonderful hundred. 

ENG 204/6 (45.4)

Ind vs Eng: Match To Resume At 6 PM IST

Here is the update. The second session will start at 6 PM IST if it doesn’t rain further.

UPDATE – If no further rain, play to restart at 1.30 PM local (6 PM IST)#ENGvIND

Ind vs Eng: Rain Delays Resumption

It’s not raining at Edgbaston, Birmingham at the moment but the covers are still on. The start of second session has been delayed now, but we haven’t got an official start time yet.

Ind vs Eng: Early Lunch Taken

Umpires have decided to take early lunch due to rain. Jonny Bairstow is 91 not out while Sam Billings is 7 not out.

Ind vs Eng: Rain Stops Play

Heavens have opened up at Edgbaston, Birmingham and this halts the play. It is raining at a good amount currently. England still trail India by 216 runs. 

ENG 200/6 (45.3)

Ind vs Eng: Good Review

Shardul Thakur trapped Jonny Bairstow in front of the stumps and umpire raised his finger. Unconvinced by the decision, Bairstow took a review and it turned out to be a superb decision to go upstairs as the replays revealed that he had edged the ball.

ENG 198/6 (45.1)

Ind vs Eng: Four, Six!

Jonny Bairstow is making fun of Shardul Thakur. He first flicked him for a four down the leg side and then slammed him for a six towards deep mid-wicket on the very next ball.

ENG 196/6 (43.4) 

Ind vs Eng: Six!

Bairstow keeps the entertainment continue. This time Siraj bowled a short ball to him and he pulled it for a six towards backward square leg. 

ENG 184/6 (42.4)

Ind vs Eng: Four!

On the pads from Mohammed Siraj and Bairstow flicks it for an easy four towards cow corner. As long as Bairstow is there, England would not have to worry for runs.  

ENG 164/6 (40.1)

Ind vs Eng: Four!

Jonny Bairstow continues to play his shots from the other end. This time he lofts Mohammed Siraj for a four down the ground. Attacking intent from the England batter is upfront.

ENG 159/6 (39)

Ind vs Eng: Four!

This is poor bowling from Shardul Thakur. He bowled it onto the pads of new batter Sam Billings and the latter took the offering with both his hands. Billings flicked it for a four on square leg.

ENG 153/6 (37.5)

Ind vs Eng: Wicket!

Ben Stokes gets out on 25 runs. You live by the sword, you die by it. The southpaw was playing with fire to effect a counter-attack, got dropped twice but eventually perished on the ball of Shardul Thakur. Meanwhile, it was Jasprit Bumrah who took a screamer at mid-off to cut short Stokes’ stint at the crease.

Ind vs Eng: Fifty For Bairstow

A single and Jonny Bairstow races to a well-deserved fifty in 81 balls. He resumed his innings on 12 runs today and marched to his fifty in a dominating style.

ENG 147/5 (36.5)

Ind vs Eng: 50-Run Partnsership

A flick of wrists for Bairstow and the ball goes for a four towards square leg. Meanwhile, the partnership between him and Stokes is now of 52 runs.

ENG 135/5 (35.2)

Ind vs Eng: Back-to-back Fours

The first boundary came as the ball was a tad short from Mohammed Siraj and Bairstow beautifully played it for a four towards deep mid-wicket. For the second boundary, Bairstow played a lofted cover drive.     

ENG 130/5 (35)

Ind vs Eng: Four!

That’s a good shot from Ben Stokes. He got a short ball outside off stump and hit it for an easy four at deep point. Runs are coming easily for England now.

ENG 114/5 (33.2)

Ind vs Eng: Four!

As easy as you like it. Jonny Bairstow got a half volley slightly outside off stump and drove it for a four down the ground. England are slowly and gradually growing in confidence.

ENG 108/5 (32.5)

Ind vs Eng: Kohli, Bairstow Engage In Verbal Altercation

Virat Kohli and Jonny Bairstow got involved in a verbal fight during the 32nd over that was bowled by Mohammed Shami. It was not clear who initiated it, but it eventually saw Bairstow losing a bit of concentration. WATCH THE VERBAL FIGHT HERE

ENG 100/5 (32)

Ind vs Eng: Four!

Here is some authority from Ben Stokes. The southpaw came down the track to Mohammed Shami and smashed him for a four straight down the ground.

ENG 94/5 (29.3)

Ind vs Eng: Four!

Ben Stokes gets the ball on his pads and steers it for an easy four past the mid-on fielder towards deep mid-wicket region.

ENG 89/5 (28.4) 

Ind vs Eng: It’s Game Time

Mohammed Shami starts the first session on Day 3 with the ball in hand. Jonny Bairstow faces him with Ben Stokes at the non-striker’s end. Here we go!

Ind vs Eng: Jadeja Speaks After Scoring First Overseas Test Ton

Ind vs Eng: Indian Pacers In Focus

Not to take anything away from the Indian pacers but it should be highlighted that the cloud cover helped them and made things tough for England batters on Day 2. Today, at least for now, the sun is out and shining bright at Edgbaston and hence it will be really interesting to see how the Indian pacers perform in such conditions.

Ind vs Eng: In Case You Missed It

Jasprit Bumrah smashed Stuart Broad for a world record of 29 runs in an over on Saturday. Broad gave away six extra runs to make it a 35-run over which meant that it turned out to be the costliest over in Test cricket history.

Here is what former India captain and ex-coach Ravi Shastri has to say:

Ind vs Eng: Will Bumrah take a fifer?

India stand-in captain Jasprit Bumrah had a good start as captain as he first smashed 29 runs off the over bowled by Stuart Broad, and then he went on to take three wickets. He will hope to take a fifer to make his Edgbaston Test more memorable for himself.
