Ind vs Eng: Indian Pacers In Focus
Not to take anything away from the Indian pacers but it should be highlighted that the cloud cover helped them and made things tough for England batters on Day 2. Today, at least for now, the sun is out and shining bright at Edgbaston and hence it will be really interesting to see how the Indian pacers perform in such conditions.

Ind vs Eng: In Case You Missed It
Jasprit Bumrah smashed Stuart Broad for a world record of 29 runs in an over on Saturday. Broad gave away six extra runs to make it a 35-run over which meant that it turned out to be the costliest over in Test cricket history.
Here is what former India captain and ex-coach Ravi Shastri has to say:
