The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced on Saturday that Team India would honour Dattajirao Gaekwad’s memory by wearing black armbands.
Meanwhile, India commenced the third day without star spinner Ravichandran Ashwin, who has withdrawn from the ongoing match due to a family medical emergency.
On Friday, Ashwin claimed Zak Crawley’s wicket, marking his 500th wicket in Tests. He became the ninth Test bowler in history to achieve this milestone and the only Indian bowler to do so after Anil Kumble.
Day 2 concluded with England swiftly advancing to 207/2, narrowing the gap to just 238 runs behind India’s first-innings total of 445.
