What a session for India once again. 4 wickets in this one and they have pushed England completely on the back foot. Ravichandran Ashwin removed dangerous Stokes early in the session.

Live Cricket Score India vs England 2nd Test: India review again. With just 1 second left on the clock, Kohli signals the ‘T’. That looks to be missing but Ashwin was sure. Pant wasn’t sure but Kohli went with his bowler. Here comes the replays. Ultra Edge. Nothing on it. Ball Tracker. Missing the stumps. India lose their third and final review. NOT OUT!

India vs England Live Score 2nd Test: OUT! Mohammed Siraj For Ollie Pope for 22. TAKEN! A blinder from Pant down the leg side. Siraj, the man does the job for the Indians.

The first ball from Siraj is a bit short but it is angled down the leg side. Pope looks to work it down the leg side but he nicks it behind.

Interesting phase coming up. England 82/5, trail India (329) by 242 runs in Chennai
Sun, 14 Feb 2021 01:05:29 pm

2nd Test Live Cricket Score IND vs ENG: OUT! Ravichandran Ashwin removes Daniel Lawrence for 9. TAKEN AT SHORT LEG! WOW! Ashwin wins the battle! The local boy roars again. Lovely delivery. He stopped before delivering this ball. Took his time and maybe worked out the plan as to what ball he wants to bowl. Loops this around off and middle, Lawrence comes on the front foot and has a defensive poke with hard hands. The ball spins enough to take the inner half. It goes a little right of Gill at forward short leg. He snaffles the chance and the Indians celebrate! With this it is LUNCH ON DAY 2. England 39/4 at LUNCH, trail India (329) by 290 runs at Chepauk

Rory Burns fails to open his account and departed for a duck as Ishant hits his pads with a sharp inswinging delivery.

India vs England Live Score: ANOTHER BLOW as this time Ishant Sharma makes a blunder on a full toss to throw his wicket away. Moeen Alli strikes again and it’s two-wicket for him in three deliveries.

Check India vs England Live Cricket Score and Updates, IND vs ENG Live Cricket Score and IND vs ENG Live Cricket Streaming Online and India vs England Dream11 Guru Tips and Prediction. (LIVE SCORECARD) Rohit Sharma oozed class with an aesthetically pleasing 161 on a challenging track, helping India seize the initiative with a solid opening day score of 300 for 6 against England in the second cricket Test on Saturday. Ajinkya Rahane looked equally attractive during his knock of 67 off 149 balls and the two Mumbaikars added 162 runs for the fourth wicket, making it worth the effort for the 15,000 who flocked the Chepauk as Indian cricket welcomed its fans back in the stadium amid the COVID-19 pandemic. A score of 350 plus in the first innings will be equivalent to 550 plus on any other track and Rishabh Pant”s (33 batting) dangerous presence could also take India well beyond the magic figure on this track. At stumps, he had debutant Axar Patel (5) for company. LIVE Cricket Score Today IND (329) 39/0, lead England (134) by 234 runs at Chepauk Rohit had scored six Test hundreds prior to this knock but he will be the first to admit that in terms of conditions on offer and the quality of attack he faced, the seventh one would be at the top of the list. Firstly, he put India in a commanding position on a track which was way more difficult for batting than he made it look with 18 fours and two sixes in his 231-ball knock. Secondly, he put all the naysayers in their place by scoring runs when it mattered the most. The team is aiming for a comeback after a crushing 227-run loss in the first Test. Joe Root was marvellous with his sweep shot during the first Test but Rohit was simply magnificent with his execution on a doubly difficult track on which he gave England spinner Moeen Ali – 3/112 – a lesson in controlled aggression. The way Rohit put a big front-foot stride outside the off-stump to sweep deliveries off both Moeen and Jack Leach – 2/78 – will not be forgotten by all who were fortunate to witness the innings.
