So, England have wrapped up India’s innings for 396. The major highlight of India’s innings was undoubtedly Yashasvi Jaiswal’s double ton, but ever since the dismissal of the 22-year-old in the second hour of the first session, it seemed as though England would wrap things up pretty quickly. Mukesh Kumar was the last man to depart after being caught by Joe Root at first slip.

What India need on Day 2?

Well Yashasvi Jaiswal is on 179 and he will try to reach his maiden double ton and it’s important he stays at the crease for as long as possible. India are on 336/6 currently the aim should be to reach at least 400 and if possible 450. For that, Ravichandran Ashwin will have to bat for as long as possible and give support to Jaiswal. If India bat for at least two sessions then they will be in a solid position.

Yashasvi Jaiswal speaks after his Day 1 heroics:

“I wanted to play it session by session. When they were bowling well, I just wanted to get through that spell. Initially, the wicket was damp and there was spin and bounce, with a bit of seam. However, I wanted to convert the loose balls, and play till the end.

“I would love to double this up, and play till the end for the team. I want to recover well for tomorrow now. The pitch played a bit differently, in the morning it was a bit damp and then it settled. With the older ball, there was some bounce.”

We are back for Day 2 of the Visakhapatnam Test. Yashasvi Jaiswal is unbeaten on 179 with Ravichandra Ashwin (5) at the other end. The opener will look to get to his double hundred after a productive Day 1, while India after a poor batting performance on Friday will aim to get to at least the 400-run mark. Live updates and live scores on our blog here. 

India vs England 2nd Test match Live: India will look to take their first innings total to at least 400 on Day 2 of the second Test against England with Yashasvi Jaiswal still unbeaten on 179. On the opening day, India had the best of the conditions to bat for themselves after captain Rohit Sharma won the toss at the Dr YS Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam. Indian innings, however, did not pan out as they would have wanted. Barring Yashasvi Jaiswal, who impressed with his shot selection and temperament, none of the Indian batters were able to get to fifty, despite all of them getting a start. A lot was expected from Rohit (14), Shubman Gill (34) and Shreyas Iyer (32), but the star batters had a poor day in the office as they fell on Day 1 pitch which didn’t really have any demons in it. Debutant Rajat Patidar impressed with his knock of 32 in which he played so nice shotts including a reverse sweep but even he failed to cash in on the start. Rookie spinners Shoaib Bashir and Rehan Ahmed were the most productive bowlers for England with two wickets each. Veteran pacer James Anderson also had one wicket as he dismissed Gill, while Tom Hartley removed Iyer. Ravichandran Ashwin is at the other end with Yashasvi Jaiswal on 5 not out.

India XI: Yashasvi Jaiswal, Rohit Sharma (c), Shubman Gill, Shreyas Iyer, Rajat Patidar, Srikar Bharat, Ravichandran Ashwin, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Mukesh Kumar

England XI: Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett, Ollie Pope, Joe Root, Jonny Bairstow, Ben Stokes (c), Ben Foakes, Rehan Ahmed, Tom Hartley, Shoaib Bashir, James Anderson
