Written By: Danish

Jasprit Bumrah claimed his 14th Test fifer (5/83), dismantling England’s tail to secure India a 6-run first-innings lead at Headingley.

Heroics

Harry Brook’s explosive 99 (11 fours, 2 sixes) ended in agony as Prasidh Krishna denied him a century with a sharp bouncer catch.

Heartbreak

Brook built key stands—73 with Smith (40) and 49 with Woakes (38)—but England fell short despite late fightbacks.

Resistance

Prasidh Krishna broke England’s momentum, dismissing Smith (40) and Brook (99) with well-directed short balls.

Prasidh’s Strike

Four catches were dropped off Bumrah’s bowling, yet the pacer dominated with his 3rd fifer in England.

Dropped Catches

The pace spearhead now has 14 five-wicket hauls in Tests, reinforcing his status as India’s big-match bowler.

Bumrah’s Record

India: 471 England: 465 (Pope 106, Brook 99, Bumrah 5/83)
