Weather permitted only 12 full overs of play during a start-stop rain-hit second session on Day 2 at Edgbaston but Jasprit Bumrah struck in each of the little phases of play, his exceptional 3 for 30 reducing England to 60/3 after India racked up 416 in the first innings. Bumrah struck with his first ball in the second session when he drew Zak Crawley into a loose drive away from the body. The nick flew waist-height to Shubman Gill at third slip. The ensuing hat-trick ball – Bumrah had castled Alex Lees with his last ball before Lunch – came into new batter Joe Root with the angle and seamed away nearly brushing the outside edge. Bairstow, given the form he’s in, started positively after the interval.
Back in they go 🙄
