Sunday brought a dramatic turn for Team India in the ongoing third Test against England at Lord’s. The moment of redemption came from none other than Yashasvi Jaiswal, who had been under scrutiny for his poor fielding.
Despite scoring runs consistently in the series, Jaiswal’s efforts in the field had come under fire since the first Test in Leeds. But on Day 4, he answered those critics in style.
Zak Crawley, trying to drive a full delivery from Nitish Reddy, got a thick edge that flew to the gully. Jaiswal made no mistake this time and completed a sharp catch, much to the relief of his teammates.
The wicket triggered huge celebrations across the Indian squad. Nitish Reddy, who took the crucial wicket, didn’t hold back either.
He gave Crawley a fired-up send-off, clearly still holding on to the frustration from the previous evening. Crawley walked back after making just 22 runs, with the Indians pumped up after the breakthrough.
The tension had been building since Saturday. In the last over of Day 3, Zak Crawley took an unusually long time to take guard. He kept fiddling with his gear, slowing the pace of the game.
India, hoping to squeeze in one last over, were visibly irritated. Their captain, fielding in the slips, got into a heated exchange with Crawley over the delay.
The umpires had to step in and cool things down as both sides looked fired up. Crawley’s delay appeared to be a tactical ploy to avoid playing more overs under poor light conditions.
Eventually, England began their innings with just 2 runs in the first over after India had posted 387. The hosts managed to level the scores by the end of that short phase.
