[WATCH]- Washington Sundar Breaks Through Again, Gets Harry Brook Stumped On Day 3

Off-spinner Washington Sundar once again stepped up for India, removing Harry Brook for a low score on Day 3 (Friday, July 25) of the ongoing fourth Test against England. The high-stakes contest is currently taking place at Emirates Old Trafford in Manchester, drawing plenty of attention from fans.

The dismissal came on the first ball of the 81st over, as Brook advanced down the pitch attempting an aggressive shot but was completely beaten by the drift. The ball went past the outside edge, allowing substitute wicketkeeper Dhruv Jurel to execute a clean stumping.
