India vs England: Following Hyderabad’s defeat, India recovered to defeat England by 106 runs in the second Test, sparking drum beats and festivities in Visakhapatnam.
After a shocking defeat in Hyderabad, England’s Bazball had scared India into a new territory at home. England, captained by Ben Stokes, had a chance to win two out of three and put an end to India’s illustrious record of going home unbeaten in a Test series since 2012. The young Indian team, however, responded with a different strategy led by Yashasvi Jaiswal, Jasprit Bumrah, Shubman Gill, R Ashwin, and Axar Patel. They managed to silence the Bazball noise and demonstrate that chasing 399 in the fourth innings required more than just a daring approach.
