England vs India, 5th Test: Skipper Jasprit Bumrah Leads India From The Front, 5-Down England Trail By 332 On Day 2

Skipper Jasprit Bumrah held sway with a mesmerizing all-round performance, which included a world record feat with the bat and an incisive spell with the ball as India seized complete control from England on a rain-hit second day of the rescheduled fifth Test here on Saturday. Such was the power of Bumrah's all-round show (31 off 16 balls and 3/35) in his first appearance as India captain that it easily overshadowed Ravindra Jadeja's superbly constructed third Test hundred that took India to a commanding first innings score of 416.

DAY 2: AS IT HAPPENEDOn a rain-affected Day Two at Edgbaston, Bumrah hit a bowler with 550 Test wickets in Stuart Broad for 29 runs in an over and then got the wickets of England openers Alex Lees, Zak Crawley and No.3 Ollie Pope to cap a perfect day as captain.

India vs England 2022, 5th Test: There's nothing like playing well for India, says Ravindra Jadeja

Ravindra Jadeja said after the second day's play in the rescheduled fifth Test against England. Earlier on Saturday, he completed a well deserved century (104) -- a mature and responsible innings -- to help India reach 416, which looked unlikely after he had joined Rishabh Pant at 98/5 on the opening day of the match. "As a player, a hundred in England is very good. I was always thinking of leaving balls outside the off-stump, because discipline is important (in English conditions), otherwise you can get caught in the slips," said Jadeja who is a left-arm spinner and more than adept at batting lower down the order. "As a batsman, my self-confidence will go up."
