3rd Test: Resilient Jadeja Brings Up 4th Successive Fifty, Drags Match Into Final Session
Resilient Jadeja: A resilient Ravindra Jadeja brought up his fourth successive half-century in Tests and dragged the third Test of the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy series into the final session after reaching 163/9 in 70 overs at tea on the final day on Monday.
Jadeja’s persistent efforts to put up a strong resistance while keeping a calm head, along with Jasprit Bumrah and later Mohammed Siraj being rock solid, means India need 30 runs to win, while England need one wicket to get a hard-fought victory.
The second session began with Jadeja flicking Jofra Archer for four, before Bumrah was defiant in defence and pulled the pacer for another boundary. England brought in fielders closer to stop giving singles, even as Jadeja and Bumrah hung around to delay the inevitable.
