ENG 77/3 at Stumps (Trail By 543 Runs) | India vs England 2nd Test 2025 Day 2 Highlights: Harry Brook-Joe Root Partnership Lifts England After Shubman Gill, Bowlers Put India Ahead

 Stumps on Day 2! What an enthralling day of Test cricket it has been on Day 2 of the Edgbaston Test. It has been a day owned by India, first with the bat particularly because of Shubman Gill's majestic 269 and impactful contributions from Yashasvi Jaiswal (87), Ravindra Jadeja (89) and Washington Sundar (42). Shubman Gill broke a number of records and he established himself as the star of the day with his knock of his. India finished with a mammoth 587-run total on the board and the bowlers then  stepped up big time, taking three England wickets. Akash Deep, who came in as Jasprit Bumrah's replacement, took two wickets and Mohammed Siraj got one. India's slip-catching, which attracted attention for all the wrong reasons in Leeds, was on point with all three catches being good ones. England however retaliated with a 52-run unbeaten partnership between Harry Brook and Joe Root. England were 77/3 at stumps. 

Harry Brook and Joe Root, arguably two of England's best batters are out there in the middle and both of them would look to build a partnership here. England have been rocked with three quick wickets and India ideally would want a couple more today. 

OUT! Another England batter bites the dust as Mohammed Siraj accounts for Zak Crawley! Once again, it is an outside edge that leads to the dismissal with Karun Nair taking a good catch in the slip cordon. India are all over England at the moment. Zak Crawley c Karun Nair b Mohammed Siraj 19(30)

OUT! Two wickets in two balls for Akash Deep as this time, it is Ollie Pope who has to depart! The right-hander got an edge and KL Rahul took a juggling catch in the slip cordon. India are pumped up big time!  Ollie Pope c KL Rahul b Akash Deep 0(1)

OUT! Two wickets in two balls for Akash Deep as this time, it is Ollie Pope who has to depart! The right-hander got an edge and KL Rahul took a juggling catch in the slip cordon. India are pumped up big time!  Ollie Pope c KL Rahul b Akash Deep 0(1)

OUT! India have struck early and it is Akash Deep who has seen the back of Ben Duckett! The left-hander got an edge and Shubman Gill pulled off a sensational catch in the slip cordon! A great start for India in this innings. Duckett c Gill b Akash Deep 0(5)

England have begun their first innings and it has been some start, especially by Zak Crawley, who hit a couple of sensational drives for boundaries off the bowling of Akash Deep. India will ideally want to pick up a couple of wickets here today. 

OUT! Shoaib Bashir has ended India's innings with the visitors making 587. Mohammed Siraj misjudged the ball and came down the track only to miss it and see Jamie Smith take out the stumps. But this innings has been about Shubman Gill, who set a plethora of records with a superb 269-run knock and this performance is surely to be remembered for a long time to come. England's response will come up shortly. 

Out! A tired shot from the Indian captain, and he isn't happy with himself. A great round of applause from the Edgbaston crowd, and England players are congratulating Shubman Gill, who played a record-breaking innings. Akash Deep is the first one to walk up to him for a handshake. A few other England players follow suit. Josh Tongue gets the prized wicket of India's captain! Shubman Gill c Ollie Pope b Josh Tongue 269(387)

Superb session for Team India and Shubman Gill. The Asian Giants have notched up 145 runs in 31 overs in the second session as they continue to make merry of beautiful batting conditions. Shubman Gill is eyeing a 300 here, and probably he won't get a better chance than this to make that figure in Tests. A magnificent knock by the India Test captain. Shubman Gill remains unbeaten on 265 as he walks off with a standing ovation from the Edgbaston crowd.
