Yas Rana and Phil Walker reflect on a thrilling first day in Ranchi, headlined by Joe Root's 31st Test century. Akash Deep made an immediate impression on debut, dismissing England's top three in a stunning new ball burst, before Bairstow and Stokes both fell to spin to leave England 112-5 at lunch. The afternoon belonged to Root though, who knuckled down and cleverly crafted one of the best centuries of his glittering Test career in tricky conditions. Ben Foakes played brilliantly at the other end for his 47, while Tom Hartley and Ollie Robinson also offered important resistance. England finished the day on 302-7, with Root unbeaten on 106*. 0:00 Recap / 1:20 Joe Root / 12:43 Pitch / 20:56 Ben Foakes / 27:07 Akash Deep / 31:24 Mohammed Siraj / 36:02 Rohit's captaincy / 38:19 Looking ahead to tomorrow You can follow Wisden Cricket on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and TikTok: https://www.facebook.com/WisdenCric https://www.instagram.com/wisden_cricket/ https://twitter.com/WisdenCricket https://www.tiktok.com/@wisdencricket The latest issue of Wisden Cricket Monthly is available now at https://wisden.com/shop/wisden-cricket-monthly-issue-75 The digital version of the magazine is also available for just ÂŁ2 a month at https://pocketmags.com/wisden-cricket-monthly-magazine#5c1cd17fa0b05 #Cricket #IndianCricket #EnglandCricket Learn more about your ad choices.

Well, what a day that was - again! Yas Rana and Katya Witney analyse another exhilarating day of action, which saw England fall just short in their chase of 371 on a controversial and emotionally charged final day at Lord's. Ben Duckett's impressive Test continued, scoring 83 to add to his first innings 98, but after he was excellently caught behind by Alex Carey and Jonny Bairstow was contentiously stumped - an incident that we'll be hearing about for a long, long time - it was the Ben Stokes show. The England captain smashed a stunning 155 including nine sixes, reminiscent in parts of his Headingley 2019 heroics, to give England a glimmer of hope, but couldn't quite drag his side over the line. Australia take a 2-0 series lead to the third Test at Headingley, starting on Thursday. For more in-depth analysis and reaction, tune into tomorrow's episode of the Wisden Cricket Weekly Podcast.

Broad took 4-65 as Australia were bowled out for 279, with Khawaja top scoring and Lyon hobbling out to bat despite injury. After setting England 371 for victory, Starc and Cummins put on a clinic with the new ball, blowing away Crawley, Pope, Root and Brook. There was a controversial moment late in the day, with Starc adjudged to have grounded a catch off Duckett.

Katya Witney, Abhishek Mukherjee and Yas Rana reflect on Pakistan's 33-run (DLS) win against South Africa - a result that just about keeps their semi-final hopes alive heading into the final round of Super 12 fixtures.

However, Shadab Khan changed the game with two wickets in his first over before the rain eventually set in.When the players re-emerged after the delay, South Africa needed 73 runs from 30 balls - a target they fell well short of.
