England back into contest
NOTTINGHAM, August 5
Seamer James Anderson won the latest round of his duel with India captain Virat Kohli and dragged England back into the contest on a rain-marred Day 2 of the opening Test today.
Anderson struck twice in two balls to inject fresh excitement into the match before intermittent rain washed away nearly the entire final session with India stranded on 125/4.
Opener KL Rahul was batting on 57, while Rishabh Pant on seven with India still 58 behind England’s first innings total of 183.
Anderson is now tied with Anil Kumble on 619 Test wickets. — Reuters
