Day 2 of India vs England has thoroughly been in India’s favour after putting up 329 on the board all courtesy of valuable contributions from Rohit Sharma, Ajinkya Rahane and Rishabh Pant who have been all over the England bowlers since Day 1.

In the follow-up post-Rohit Sharma and Ajinkya Rahane’s dismissal, it was Rishabh Pant who kept things going as he scored an unbeaten knock of 58 runs off 77 deliveries only to run out of partners at the other end.

With India in a comfortable position after scoring 329 in the 1st innings, it was now time for the Indian bowlers to shine with the bowl as both Ishant Sharma and Ravichandran Ashwin strikes early on Day 2, sending both openers Rory Burns and Dom Sibley Back to the pavilion in no time.
