NEW DELHI: Despite a valiant effort from

India ended the day at 90/2, leading by 96 runs, with KL Rahul (47)* and
Shubman Gill
(6)* unbeaten at stumps.

DROPPED CATCHES HURT INDIA
India were let down by poor fielding once again, dropping five catches in the innings. The most glaring was when
Yashasvi Jaiswal
dropped Harry Brook for the third time in the match — on 82 — off Bumrah's bowling.
Earlier, Brook was dropped by
Rishabh Pant
on 46, and also survived after being bowled off a Bumrah no-ball on Day 2. He eventually fell for 99, pulling a short ball from Prasidh Krishna to Shardul Thakur at fine leg.
BROOK LEADS ENGLAND'S COUNTERATTACK
Resuming at 209/3, England rode on Harry Brook's aggressive 99 and Chris Woakes' quickfire 38 to erase India's lead. Brook was the standout with fearless strokeplay, launching even Bumrah for sixes over extra cover.
England scored 138 runs in 23.4 overs in the extended afternoon session, regularly finding boundaries off an inconsistent Indian pace attack.
BUMRAH'S BRILLIANCE
Jasprit Bumrah was once again India's saving grace. He claimed 5/83 in 24.4 overs, his 14th five-wicket haul in Tests and 10th in SENA countries, a milestone unmatched by any other Indian pacer.

His spell ended England's innings at 465, giving India a slender six-run first-innings lead.
While Bumrah shone, the rest of India's pace unit struggled. Prasidh Krishna picked up two wickets, including Brook and Jamie Smith, but conceded 128 runs in 20 overs, lacking variation and control.
Shardul Thakur was barely used, and Ravindra Jadeja was curiously brought in late, despite extracting turn.
KL RAHUL IMPRESSES
Chasing quick runs before stumps, India lost Yashasvi Jaiswal (4) early to Brydon Carse, and Sai Sudharsan (30) again fell to Ben Stokes, who dismissed him twice in the match.

But KL Rahul looked composed and elegant, striking seven boundaries, most through classic drives, as he remained unbeaten on 47 before rain stopped play.
Throughout the innings, Indian players were visibly unhappy with the condition of the worn-out Dukes ball, and frequently appealed to the umpires for a change. After repeated refusals, the ball was eventually changed in the 75th over, just before the second new ball became available.
India will hope for a solid batting effort on Day 4 to set up the match, while England will look to capitalise on any slip-ups. With conditions still favouring seam movement, the match is finely balanced heading into a potentially pivotal fourth day.

Archer could return for the second Test against India: report
Injury-prone pacer Jofra Archer could be in the England mix for the second Test against India beginning July 2, as he is set for a red-ball comeback with Sussex at Durham in the County Championship, according to a report. The England pace bowling attack without the likes of Archer and Mark Wood has looked tepid in the opening Test of the Anderson-Tendulkar series with India, led by new skipper Shubman Gill, scoring 471 runs in the first innings at Leeds. 'Jofra Archer will return to red-ball cricket with Sussex — despite not being named in the squad for the County Championship match at Durham. If he comes through the match unscathed, he could be in the mix to play in the second Test against India at Edgbaston,' said a report in Sky Sports. It said the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has confirmed that the pacer will be in Sussex's travelling group for the four-day fixture beginning later on Sunday (June 22, 2025). Archer, who played for Rajasthan Royals in the 2025 IPL season, has not been a part of first-class cricket in four years due to injuries. The 30-year-old quick was initially not in the 12-player travelling squad for the County Championship match, raising doubts about his fitness but the ECB and Sussex later said the Barbadian-English cricketer will be travelling for the match at Chester-le-Street. If Archer is part of the playing XI and his body holds up in the red-ball fixture, he could be in contention for the second Test at Edgbaston from July 2 or the third at Lord's from July 10. Archer has only played white-ball cricket for England since 2021 because of recurring elbow and back injuries. He was initially due to make a red-ball comeback for the England Lions against India A but a thumb injury, suffered during the IPL, did not heal in time. England skipper Ben Stokes had said earlier this month that Archer, who has 42 wickets in 13 Tests, was keen to return to Test cricket. 'Randomly, a couple of times he would just send me a text... I was like, 'Let's just hold it there, alright. I know you're in a good spot right now but let's not just rush into it'. 'He's obviously had a horrific time with injuries but he's had some good amount of cricket, albeit in the white-ball formats,' Stokes had said. 'It's really exciting for England, but also more exciting for Jof (Archer) that he's in a position now where we're able to have a plan in place, and hopefully him get through something to actually be considered for selection for Test cricket.'

Latest update on Tyrese Haliburton's injury status for Indiana Pacers vs Indiana Pacers NBA Finals Game 7 (June 22, 2025)
Is Tyrese Haliburton playing tonight? (Image Source - Getty Images) Tyrese Haliburton, the Indiana Pacers ' star point guard and leader, will entrer the 2025 NBA Finals Game 7 against the Oklahoma City Thunder under a cloud of injury concern, but with an unwavering determination to compete for his team's first championship in franchise history. Tyrese Haliburton's Injury Background and Progression Tyrese Haliburton suffered a right calf strain during Game 5 of the Finals series. The injury hampered his performance, as he managed only four points on 0-for-6 shooting from the field in a blowout loss to the Thunder. The severity of the injury was not publicly disclosed, but it was clear the calf strain was significant enough to make him a game-time decision for Game 6. Haliburton himself admitted that, under normal circumstances—such as the regular season—he would not attempt to play through this level of discomfort. Tyrese Haliburton's Game 6 Performance Tyrese Haliburton (Image via Getty Images) Despite the injury, Haliburton started Game 6 and played a pivotal role in Indiana's 108-91 victory that forced a decisive Game 7. He logged 23 minutes, contributing 14 points, five assists, and two steals, while shooting 3-of-7 from three-point range. The Indiana Pacers ' lead ballooned to 31 points at one stage, allowing Haliburton to rest for much of the second half and focus on treatment and recovery. Haliburton's mobility and offensive impact were notable, as he did not appear significantly limited despite the calf being wrapped and monitored closely by the medical staff. Tyrese Haliburton's Pre-Game 7 Status As Game 7 approaches, the Indiana Pacers officially listed Haliburton as 'questionable' due to the lingering calf strain. Reports indicated that this injury would typically require multiple weeks of rest and recovery if it occurred in the regular season. However, with the championship on the line, Haliburton was determined to play. In pre-game interviews, Haliburton described his condition as 'a little sore' but improving with treatment. He emphasized that he was 'pretty much in the same standpoint' as before Game 6, but was confident he would be 'ready to go for Game 7'. The Pacers' training staff was praised for their management of his injury, ensuring he was as prepared as possible for the final contest. Risks and Team Outlook for Indiana Pacers vs OKC Thunder NBA Finals Game 7 The Pacers and their medical team remained cautious, aware of the risks of aggravating the injury, which could potentially lead to more serious complications such as an Achilles tear—an outcome that could jeopardize Haliburton's availability for the entire 2025-26 season. Despite these concerns, Haliburton's competitive spirit and the magnitude of the occasion made his participation in Game 7 a near certainty, barring any last-minute setbacks. Tyrese Haliburton enters Game 7 of the 2025 NBA Finals as the Indiana Pacers' most important player, battling a calf strain that would have sidelined him in less consequential circumstances. His resilience, leadership, and ability to perform at a high level despite the injury were emblematic of Indiana's underdog spirit throughout the playoffs. With everything on the line in Oklahoma City, Haliburton's presence and performance would be critical to the Pacers' championship aspirations.
