India vs England, 2nd Test Day 4 Live Score & Updates: India continued to dominate the second Test against England at Edgbaston, finishing Day 3 in a strong position with a lead of 244 runs and nine wickets still in hand. After Shubman Gill's brilliant 269 helped India post a huge total of 587, Mohammed Siraj and Akash Deep tore through the English batting lineup to give India a big advantage.
India started the match with a bang as their batters piled up the runs. Captain Shubman Gill led the way with a stunning 269 from 387 balls. He got great support from Ravindra Jadeja, who made 89, and Washington Sundar, who added 42. Yashasvi Jaiswal also played a solid knock of 87 at the top.
In reply, England got off to the worst possible start. They were reduced to 25/3 early, with Akash Deep and Siraj removing the top three cheaply. Siraj was the star, ending with fantastic figures of 6/70. Akash Deep also impressed with 4/88. The only resistance came from Harry Brook and Jamie Smith, who forged a brilliant 303-run stand for the sixth wicket.
But once Brook was bowled by Akash Deep, the rest of the English batting collapsed quickly. England were all out for 407 in just 89.3 overs. India will look to extend their lead to over 400 and then put pressure on England in the fourth innings.

Were India worried about Bazball? Morne Morkel reflects on visitors' late declaration
Morne Morkel has defended India's decision to go for a late declaration on Day 4 of the Edgbaston Test against England on Saturday, July 5, and said that they weren't worried about England and Bazball. India scored 427 runs in their second innings with Shubman Gill leading the way with 161 runs and useful contributions from Ravindra Jadeja and Rishabh India were piling on the runs and setting up a target of 608 for England to chase, many of the fans and pundits felt it was a bit of an overkill in the end, as no team has chased more than 418 in the history of Tests. India did get 16 overs at England and reduced them to 72 for three during this time as the hosts still have a big mountain to climb. ENG vs IND 2nd Test Day 4 Updates But the rain in Birmingham may not be the best friend of the visitors as showers are predicted on Day at the press conference after the day's play on Saturday, Morkel said that the team did have a talk about declaration but felt that it was still a good wicket to bat on. The India bowling coach said that the team wanted to get into a good spot as the weather was something beyond their control."That's a good question. We did speak about it a lot of the day. But I think we see that it's still a good wicket. Even our boys were batting quite comfortably towards the back end at 4 or 5 runs an over. With you having the extra day, I mean, weather, you can't really control that. It was getting us into a comfortable position with the bat, and then, obviously, tonight, have 20-plus overs at them and hopefully gloomy grey skies, and get the two or three wickets, and we got that, which is a bonus for us," said Morkel."So yeah, tomorrow morning that first hour is gonna be crucial. We saw this morning that, you know, if you get the ball in the right area, there was a little bit of assistance and yeah, we just need to be on the money with that tomorrow."Were India worried about Bazball?Morkel was asked if India were worried about the Bazballing England and their intention to chase down any target put in front of them. Morkel refuted the notion and said that if a team scores more than 500-plus runs on the final day, then they deserve to win the No, not really. I think if a team scores 500+ on the final day, then they deserve to win. So, I think it was just a little bit more time. Ideally give an hour, a little bit more than an hour at them tonight, with Day 5 around the corner," said are chasing their first-ever win at Edgbaston on Sunday.- Ends

Shubman Gill Scripts History, Becomes First Player In 148 Years To...
Shubman Gill continued to spread his magic in the second Test between India and England at Edgbaston, Birmingham. After scoring a mammoth 269 in his first innings in the game, Gill hit 161 to put India in the driving seat as the visitors set a massive 608-run target for the Three Lions. The performance helped Gill break and script multiple records; one of them happened for the first time in the 148-year history of Test cricket. Gill became the first-ever batter to smash a double ton and 150 in a Test match. Gill shone with the bat on Satuday before Mohammed Siraj and Akash Deep again struck with the new ball as the tourists pressed for a series-levelling win at Edgbaston. Gill declared India's second innings on 427-6 after tea on the fourth day. That left England needing a mammoth 608 runs to go 2-0 up in this five-match series. No side in 148 years of Test cricket have made more to win in the fourth innings than the West Indies' 418 against Australia at St John's in 2003. England's corresponding record is the 378 they made against India at Edgbaston three years ago. But at Saturday's close in Birmingham they were 72-3, needing a further 536 runs on the final day to achieve a win that would be remarkable even by this team's 'Bazball' standards. Harry Brook, who helped keep England afloat in their first innings with 158 in a total of 407, was still there on 15 not out. Siraj, who led India's attack with 6-70 in the first innings, struck an early blow Saturday when he removed Zak Crawley for a duck as a loose drive went straight to backward point. Deep, given the unenviable task of replacing the rested Jasprit Bumrah, the world's number one ranked fast bowler, then carried on from his four-wicket haul first-time around by bowling Ben Duckett (25) with a nip-back ball. He then clean bowled Joe Root for just six as the world's number one-ranked Test batsman was undone by a superb full-length delivery that moved away late. Earlier, by taking his tally in this match to 430 runs, the 25-year-old Gill became only the fifth batsman to score 400 or more runs in a single Test. Gill, thrust into the captaincy following Rohit Sharma's shock retirement from Test duty in May, has scored three hundreds in his first four innings as skipper following his 147 during India's five-wicket defeat in the first Test at Headingley.
