Additionally, wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant completed 150 catches in the Test format, becoming the third Indian stumper to do so after MS Dhoni and Syed Kirmani.

KL Rahul's unbeaten 47 in the second innings keeps the match balanced for both teams.
India's fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah achieved a remarkable feat in the first Test between England and India at Headingley in Leeds. He equaled former captain Kapil Dev's record of most five-wicket hauls for India in away Tests, with both players having 12 fifers to their names. Bumrah's outstanding performance helped India take control of the match, as he consistently took wickets to restrict England's first innings total. This milestone comes in just Bumrah's 34th Test, while Kapil Dev took 66 matches to achieve it.
Indian pacer Mohammed Siraj showcased his frustration towards English batsman Harry Brook during day three of the first Test in Headingley.

The game is now poised for an exciting finish as both teams look to grab the victory.
Despite four dropped catches, Jasprit Bumrah's impressive bowling performance helped India snag a narrow six-run lead over England on the third day of the first Test in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy series. England, led by Harry Brook's spirited 99, were looking to take the lead but Bumrah's relentless spells turned the tide back in India's favor as they were eventually dismissed for 465. Bumrah was well-supported by Prasidh Krishna and Mohammed Siraj, who also contributed to the hosts' downfall. However, England's counter-attack led by Chris Woakes and Brydon Carse did provide some resistance before Bumrah tore through the tail to claim his fifth wicket. India will look to build on their lead when they resume their innings on the fourth day.
India takes a slender lead over England of just six runs as Bumrah takes five wickets in the third day of the first Test match. Brook completes a brief score of 99 before being dismissed by Bumrah.

Despite a valiant effort by Chris Woakes, England was unable to surpass India's first innings lead of 471 runs. Star bowler Jasprit Bumrah proved to be too much for the English team, taking five wickets and limiting them to a score of 465. Although the game remains evenly poised, India's fielding weaknesses and captain Shubman Gill's questionable decisions could give England the edge in the next innings.
Despite receiving his maiden Test call-up, Arshdeep Singh was not included in Team India's playing XI for the first Test against England. The 26-year-old left-arm fast bowler has previously represented India in limited-overs formats but is yet to make his Test debut. Instead, fellow newcomer Prasidh Krishna was chosen as the third seamer alongside Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj, while all-rounder Shardul Thakur also put forward a strong case for himself with an unbeaten century in a practice match.
The first Test between India and England at Headingley took an intense turn on Day 3 when Indian pacer Mohammed Siraj and England batter Harry Brook engaged in a fiery exchange after a couple of boundaries were hit.

In the meantime, England's tail is wagging strongly as they look to match India's first-innings total.
Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah once again proved his prowess on the England tour as he took a five-wicket haul in the first Test against England in Leeds.

With his fluent partnership with Jamie Smith, the hosts now trail India by just 144 runs with five wickets in hand.
