Match Highlights: India vs England 3rd Test – Day 1 Recap
The much-awaited 3rd Test between India and England kicked off in scenic Dharamshala, and it has already delivered high drama on Day 1. Batting first after winning the toss, India ended the day at 297/7, with Karun Nair and Jasprit Bumrah at the crease.
The England bowling unit, led by Chris Woakes and debutant Brydon Carse, kept things tight, but a solid middle-order partnership kept India in control.
Bumrah Makes Impact With the Bat and Ball
Though primarily known for his lethal pace, Jasprit Bumrah showcased his evolving all-round abilities. After contributing a crucial 22* at the tail end, Bumrah struck with the new ball in England’s short reply before stumps.
His delivery to dismiss Zak Crawley was a masterclass in seam bowling—reminding fans why Bumrah is the backbone of India’s bowling attack.
Karun Nair’s Comeback: Grit Over Glamour
Making a return after two years, Karun Nair stood tall with a gritty 74 against a fired-up England attack. His patient knock was a throwback to his triple-century against England in 2016.
Cricket Twitter hailed his comeback, with fans trending #KarunNairReturns by evening.
England’s Bowling: Woakes Holds the Line
Veteran Chris Woakes led the English pace unit with discipline, finishing with figures of 3/55. Brydon Carse, who replaced injured Mark Wood, impressed with his pace but struggled with consistency.
England captain Ben Stokes rotated his bowlers well, but poor catching in the slips hurt the visitors.
