England vs India 2nd Test Day 3 HIGHLIGHTS: Despite heroic centuries from Jamie Smith (184*) and Harry Brook (158), England ended Day Three of the second Test at Edgbaston trailing India by 244 runs. After resuming the day at 98/4, England fought back through a 300-run partnership between Brook and Smith, punishing the Indian bowlers who looked erratic and ineffective for most of the second session. However, Akash Deep broke the stand by removing Brook and Woakes in quick succession, while Siraj wrapped up the innings with a six-wicket haul, including three wickets in a single over. England were eventually bowled out for 407, conceding a 180-run lead.
 
India’s second innings began strongly with a 51-run opening stand before Jaiswal fell for 28. At stumps, India were 64/1 with KL Rahul and Karun Nair unbeaten. Earlier in the day, Siraj had rocked England with the wickets of Root and Stokes in consecutive deliveries. But Smith’s record-breaking knock—the highest by an English wicketkeeper in Tests—kept England in the contest. He also scored the joint fourth-fastest Test century for England, punishing an inconsistent Indian attack. With two days remaining, India hold the upper hand, eyeing a massive lead and a potential series-clinching victory.
