Brother, you are absolutely right! The beginning of the day was good, the end was tense as well. Yashasvi and Rahul gave a great start, it seemed like they would go for 400 plus. But suddenly they lost momentum. Gill's dismissal was absolutely heartbreaking and seeing the injury to his pants made me shiver for a moment. If he had been there, I would have targeted 350 today.
Indian team had a solid start to the innings. The opening pair was able to make 94 runs. It was such a great start and then KL Rahul was out on 46. He could not complete his half century. The next batsman Sai Sudharsan also batted well for 61 runs. Yashasvi Jaiswal was able to make 58. I thought any one of them should have carried forward their innings and go on to make a big 100 but they were out when they were fully settled. When Rishabh Pant was retired hurt, it had a psychological bad impact on the Indian batting.
Thanks to Ravindra Jadeja and Shardul Thakur. They made 19 runs each and played out the depth overs in the first day. If they lost more wickets, India would be in trouble. Now they need to continue this partnership tomorrow.
