Pant, Jadeja take India past 200

July 01, 2022 21:49

India 223-5 (53 ovs) vs England | Scorecard

Jadeja, meanwhile, has been quite solid at the other end. He defends Anderson to midwicket and blocks the next with a straight bat followed by a leave.

Jadeja keeps out the last three balls as India reach 202/5 in 50 overs.

Captain Stokes has a chat with the young Potts. But he errs with his length, bowling a half-volley on the stumps as Pant plays a glorious flick through midwicket for a four to move into the 80s and also go past 2000 runs in Test cricket.

Pant takes a single to square leg before Jadeja misses the glance off the last ball but it goes fine off his pads for four leg byes.

Pant in the mood now! He comes down the track and lofts Anderson back over his head for a four to continue his assault on the senior England pacer.

The next ball is an effort, short of good length and coming sharply, as Pant is hit high on the pads as he misses the block.

Pant clips the fourth ball for a single and Jadeja takes a leg bye after being hit on the pads.

The runs are flowing quite easily for the Indians with 50 coming from the last 10 overs.

Jadeja continues the flow of boundaries. This time he throws his bat at a wide delivery from Potts, as it goes uppishly off the edge over gully for a four.

Jadeja keeps out the next few balls before he clips the last ball for a couple of runs on the leg side.
