India vs England live: Score and match updates from the second Test

Kuldeep has a decent defence, so Jaiswal feels no need to farm the strike at this stage. As a result there’s a temporary feeling of stalemate, with only two runs from the last three overs.

Bashir has an LBW appeal turned down against Kuldeep, who was hit outside the line of off stump. 

Edit: in fact he was hit in line, but it was umpire’s call on height so a review would have been unsuccessful.

Jaiswal’s score is the fifth highest in a Test innings where nobody else has reached fifty. He needs a few more to overtake Dennis Amiss’s remarkable match-saving knock at Sabina Park 50 years ago.

• 262* Dennis Amiss, England 432-9 v West Indies, Jamaica, 1973-74
• 231 Dudley Nourse, South Africa 491 v Australia, Johannesburg, 1935-36
• 226 Brian Lara, West Indies 405 v Australia, Adelaide,  2005-06
• 216* Marvan Atapattu, Sri Lanka 428 v Zimbabwe, Bulawayo, 1999-2000
• 208* Yashasvi Jaiswal, India 382-7 v England, Vizag, 2023-24

With Kuldeep - who is only interested in survival - on strike, Bashir bowls his first maiden in Test cricket.

Jaiswal edges Anderson just wide of second slip for four. Kuldeep survives a big LBW appeal later in the over, with England deciding not to review on the grounds that it probably pitched outside leg. It did.

It’s been an eventful few minutes here, with England’s great joy – and probably some humour – in dismissing Ashwin, then Jaiswal’s stunning celebration of a superb double-hundred. This has been a ridiculous innings.

Jaiswal rushes to a double hundred by sweeping Bashir for 10 in two balls! It’s an extraordinary performance: 277 balls, 18 fours, seven sixes. He’s only the third player under 23 to make a Test 200 in the last 20 years; the others were Kraigg Brathwaite and Zak Crawley.

The new batsman Kuldeep is beaten by two of his first three deliveries. For a 41-year-old quick bowler in India, Anderson’s figures are preposterous: 21-3-38-2.

Ashwin c Foakes b Anderson 20 This is a masterclass from Jimmy Anderson. He has picked up the dangerous Ravichandran Ashwin with another beautiful delivery. It moved off the seam, squared Ashwin up and brushed the outside edge on its way through to Ben Foakes. Ashwin reviewed straight away, because the ball whacked the thigh pad and he didn’t realise he’d also edged it. Technology showed just a little touch. FOW 364/7

Oh, good morning. Jaiswal, who has been quiet until now, charges Bashir and carts him over mid-on for six. That takes him into the 190s. Jaiswal is 22 years old; the last Indian batsman under the age of 23 to make a Test double-century was ... Vinod Kambli, who hit two in a month against England and India back in 1992-93.

Anderson has another, less convincing LBW appeal next ball. Deep down he knew it pitched outside leg stump, and replays confirm as much. Jaiswal has responded to Anderson’s movement by batting outside his crease.

Yep, too high. It shaped back beautifully but was just bouncing over the stumps. Anderson has bowled masterfully to Jaiswal this morning.

It was another fine delivery from Anderson, an inducker this time. It’s close but maybe too high.

For the second time this morning, Ashwin drives Bashir sweetly to the cover boundary. He averages 41 at home to England and can be a really dangerous customer. Bashir has been slightly flat this morning and Ben Stokes must be tempted to turn to Tom Hartley.

After Ashwin takes a leg-bye, Anderson beats Jaiswal with a stunning delivery, full and moving dramatically off the seam.

He tries again next ball. This time Jaiswal nails a cover drive and Duckett makes a brilliant diving stop in the covers.

Ashwin, incidentally, is now standing a long way from Anderson at the non-striker’s end.

A quiet over from Bashir, one from it. He still hasn’t bowled a maiden, but two wickets and no maidens is better than the other way round. Now it’s time for Jimmy to bowl at his latest irritant.

Ashwin wound England – and the usually serene umpire Marais Erasmus – up last night by asking for the last over of the day not to be bowled, because it was 4.29pm and he’d had enough. He got quite a ticking off from the umpire. Well, he’s winding Jimmy Anderson up now, by standing very straight and moving around at the non-striker’s end. One thing’s for sure with Ashwin, he won’t be leaving his crease early.

Anderson takes the new ball, as predicted by Will. He stopped bowling looseners in about 2012, and his first ball is a beauty that beats Jaiswal. The second is even better, snapping off the seam to take a thick edge that doesn’t carry. A terrific start from Anderson, with some encouraging movement.

Seems smart to take the new ball straight away. India have a longer tail in this game, with Kuldeep replacing Jadeja, so one wicket and England will fancy that they are in business. 

Shoaib Bashir opens the bowling, still with the old ball for now. Ravichandran Ashwin, who is such a dangerous No8 in these conditions, gets the first boundary with a lovely cover drive.

We are staying in the same hotel as the teams and there was a lovely moment last night in the restaurant where the Indian side were dining (private room, not like team Telegraph.) Jaiswal posed for photos with the staff but security had to whisk him through the kitchens away from the fans standing outside the restaurant hoping for selfies. He took it in his stride, which is good because that will be his life now.

Greetings from Vizag, where it’s another warm morning. England had reason to be buoyed by the six wickets they took yesterday; it could have been one of those days that got away from them, but it was not. If they are to bowl India out, they need to get rid of Yashasvi Jaiswal, who have notice of quite how good he already is, and could still be. There is a new ball available to them, and Jimmy Anderson is warming up. I reckon he takes it immediately.

A sign of Anderson’s frustration with his summer was the new run-up he unveiled on Friday. He quickened his run-up to create more momentum through the crease. Over the winter months, he paid to use a public running track next to Manchester City’s Etihad Stadium, working through speed drills. It was the latest emblem of Anderson’s standards and unstinting desire to improve; like Tom Brady and Serena Williams, he has refused to allow his career to be governed by the normal limits of age.

Hello, good morning and welcome to Telegraph Sport’s live, over-by-over coverage of the second day of the second Test in Vizag. India will resume on 336/6 after an unusual first day in which all their batsmen got in and got out on a flat pitch. All bar one: Yashasvi Jaiswal, who for a couple of years has felt like India’s next red-ball superstar, confirmed his limitless potential with a majestic 179 not out. 

Jaiswal could hurt England’s hopes of dismissing India for around 400 and then going big on a pitch that is likely to deteriorate on the last two days. Bazball-era England have made their name making improbably big scores in the second innings. In this game, first-innings runs feel like a more reliable currency.

Two of the six wickets fell to 20-year-old Shoaib Bashir, who had by far the biggest workload (28 overs) on his debut. His visa problems are so last month. “I’m just going to look back on this day and think about getting Rohit Sharma out,” he said at the close of play. “I think that’s all that matters really.

“I had no doubts at all that I’d make it here, I always knew I would get the visa. It was a bit of a hassle but we’re here now, I’ve made my debut, and that’s all that counts. I’m pretty chilled.

“It’s been a very special day. To get Rohit Sharma out, my first wicket, is an incredible feeling. I just let it all out. He’s a quality player, one of the best in the world and a great player of spin as well.”
