At the conclusion of Day 3, Rohit wears a broad smile as he walks off the pitch. What a day for India, rebounding from yesterday's setbacks caused by Bashir.
Jurel and Kuldeep displayed determination today, with Jurel's inspiring 90 ensuring a modest deficit of only 46. Riding on this momentum, India bowled brilliantly in the second innings, dismissing England cheaply. Ashwin led with the new ball, while Kuldeep mesmerized with the semi-new cherry, leaving England dancing to his tunes. Eventually, Ashwin secured his 35th Test fifer.
England's inexperience with spin was evident; they attempted to replicate India's success with new ball spin, but their lack of exposure showed. India capitalized on freebie full tosses and overcooked deliveries, almost wiping out the deficit without loss at a scoring rate of 5 runs per over.
