Get Ball by Ball Commentary of England vs India 1st Test 2025

1pm Wow… that changes things. For an hour and 54 minutes, India were running away with this session. Now, all of a sudden, it’s a more even morning. England’s commitment to taking wickets pays off in the end, and they’ll go to lunch the happier team in spite of the toil. Jaiswal is looking very solid on 42 not out, but he and the new skipper Gill will have a job to do after the break…

H. Prasanna : “Two leg slips trap is pure Bazbowl!”

Yves: “That session belonged to IND until Rahul did what he did. It’s been ENG’s session now.”

Neutral: “Poor match awareness from Jaiswal there! Exposes the debutant to 5 balls from Stokes one over before Lunch. Very bad end for India to that session.”

Stokes to Sai Sudharsan, OUT, leg-sided from Stokes again, no doubt about that one! What a horrible way for Sudharsan to go, it’s a strangle, but a played-for strangle! More swing to confound the new boy as he tries to put bat on ball, Smith leaps wonderfully to his right, clings on in both hands, a palpable nick on its way!
