A 90 runs lead is not that enough to win the test for India. Jadeja is still going strong with the bat and Bharat is catching up with him. Both are doing quite well considering both have been facing the spin attack. By the end of day 2, India should be able to get a lead of atleast 120 runs. The wicket is not that easy for batters any more and the English bowlers are have been able to break partnership whenever a new one starts to build. It won't be easy for them to bat on this wicket, they will try to restrict India from giving them a big lead.
Anothe Indian batter missing out on his century, the first one being Jaiswal and the second being KL Rahul. Jadeja looking agressive like Rahul and Jaiswal, he with Bharat have bat as long as they can. Bharat did not bat well in his last test match. This time he got another opportunity and should use it. At the moment the lead is of 46 runs and looking at the current situation the lead should be of 150 runs.
So far the Indian team is leading the England team by 90 runs and 30 overs are still left in today's third session and if the Indian team can bat till these 30 overs then they will easily lead by 200 runs. If a lead of 250 runs is given, the defeat of the England team will become essential because it is predicted what kind of batting the England team will do in the second innings after being bowled out for 246 runs in the first innings. No team can perform as well in the second innings as in the first innings. If India gives a lead of 250 runs then it will be difficult for England to take those 250 runs. 
Australia vs West Indies
West Indies bowlers continue to bowl brilliantly today in the second Test match between Australia and West Indies. In the first innings of this test match West Indies batted first and collected 311 runs which was a very good score for them.
Australia came out to bat in their first innings today and lost their seven valuable wickets for just 182 runs. Usman Khawaja is still batting for Australia and is unbeaten on 48 runs. Alzarri Joseph of the West Indies team has shown great all-round skills in this test match. Alzarri Joseph scored 32 runs off 22 balls while batting and while bowling he took three wickets today but another three wickets were taken by his teammate Kemar Roach.
Can we then assume that the West Indies team is going to win this Test match against Australia and the series is going to draw 1-1.

In the 1st Test match of India vs England, India team came to the field to bat on Day 2. In the 1st Innings, England team came to the field to bat and scored 246 runs by losing 10 wickets in 64.3 overs. England team did not perform well in batting in the 1st Innings. India team 76 Scored 309 runs losing 5 wickets in the over.Now Team India is leading by 63 runs. Team India batsman Rohit Sharma is out for 24 runs in 27 balls. KL Rahul is out for 86 runs in 123 balls. Shubman Gill is out for 23 runs in 66 balls.

There is no doubt that Jaiswal has performed brilliantly. But if he had batted with some responsibility, and if he had batted a bit slowly, he might have been able to score a century. Jaiswal got out after collecting 80 runs from 74 balls. He batted at a strike rate of 108.
KL Rahul returned to the dressing room with 86 runs and Jadeja is now unbeaten with 49 runs. Almost every Indian batsman is batting brilliantly. India collected 321 runs after losing 5 wickets. The Indian team has already managed to take a lead of 75 runs. India can easily take a lead of more than 150 runs. As the Indian spin bowlers are in excellent form, India's chances of winning this match seem more than 90% to me.
India has already lost 5 wickets after meeting the target of 246 runs. Although the batsmen of the Indian team have batted well due to which they are batting to give a good lead so far. Srikar Bharat and Ravindra Jadeja at the crease at the moment will surely score good runs. If India can give a lead of 250+ on the second day then there is definitely a chance of winning, and if they give England less than that then there is a chance of India losing. If batsmen like KL Rahul and Yashasvi Jaiswal present at the crease can form a partnership then win is possible. At the moment the Indian team has given a lead of 67 runs, they can definitely collect a good score if they perform well in the end.

He was backing his bowler completely and in doing so overbowled him, which kind of backfired royally. Tbh apart from Joe Root no one else looked threatening. They also underbowled Leach, at least he was not offering any freebies.
From England's POV, they have to take out Iyer at all costs, if he digs in then he'll destroy this spin attack.
Surprisingly Windies are dominating Aussies and that too at Gabba lol

Backing up debutant is indeed but overbowling him is terrible mistake because the player himself need breaks to assess the condition and what/where to bowl from looking at the other bowlers, but he kept bowling from one end consistently while Leach isn't given much chance even though he is economical.
Shreyas departed while taking on and try to clear against fielder, now Jaddu came and we can see some exciting shots already.
74/5 that is very unlike Aussies at their home but it's good to see Windies performing against a quality team, hopefully their team will get some inspiration and be the side who they were in the past decades.
In the first test match between Australia and West Indies, the way the West Indies team was a batting failure, the West Indies team turned around beautifully in the second test after overcoming the batting failure. West Indies give Australia a lead of 311 runs. Australia's batsmen are under a lot of pressure after losing 4 wickets before collecting 30 runs. The way Australia is performing in the second Test is really disappointing because no one could have imagined that the Australian batsmen would perform so badly. Australia's performance looks like they may be going to lose against the West Indies in the second Test. Australia's current score is 66 for 5 with 14 overs to play. The West Indies team is working hard to win the second test match and the batsmen have batted well and bowled well. It is expected that West Indies may win against Australia in the second Test match.
Another partnership broken the English bowlers and it is not looking good for India. I expected more from Iyer than just 35 runs and getting caught out. The lead as of now is of 10 runs and KL Rahul is doing well with the bat, he is on 81 runs and needs another 19 runs to get his 100 of 2024. Ravindra Jadeja has not been in his best as a batter whereas he has been bowling good. A partnership is the requirement at this time and that to till the end of day 2. It is imperative that KL Rahul gets all the support that he can from the non striker end.
After quick two wickets by England today, the fall of wickets have stopped. KL Rahul dominating the game with his bat and is in an agressive mode. The way he has been batting a half century is in the making and a century can be achieved today. India now only trail by 44 runs and Iyer and Rahul are doing great on the field.
Kl Rahul and Shreyas Iyer now form a great pair. Kl Rahul has already completed his half-century and is a little away from his fifty. But sorry for Jaswal as he got out just 20 runs away from his century maybe with a little more attention or patience he could have completed his century. The Indian team has collected 244 runs for four wickets at the moment. KL Rahul is slowly inching towards his century. India is still only two runs behind England. If India can give England a target of 300 runs, I think India will win this Test match very easily.
West Indies vs Australia match is far more entertaining than the India vs England match currently thanks to Roach and Joseph making a mockery of the Australian batting line-up unexpectedly.
India will probably end up giving a lead of around 200+ runs while Windies might actually win this test and screw my bet on Australia.

I feel Gill is having hard time adjusting to different formats, he played exceptionally well in last IPL, but since then he's been lackluster, had couple good knocks in between iirc but nothing much or is it Dengue that weakened him?
What's happened to Australia team today they lose their four wicket before the 10 over and the wrong is only 27. It is very unspected performance for me from Australian team specially from their top order batsman. No one can able to their personal score about 8 run and Travis Head make a golden duck. I think in the second test Australia will defeat by West Indies team because they have only 6 wicket and they were trail by 278 run.

I don't know what Ben Stokes is thinking his mind by keep bowling Hartley from one end even though his economy is around 5 which is very expensive for test cricket standard on the other side he is not giving the ball to Jack Leach who is the experienced of all three or even Joe Root who took wicket in the very first over today.
India just trail by 24 runs at the Lunch Day 2, with only fall of 3 wickets so I am guessing another 250 runs on the board is on from now on.

At the end of India's first session, they scored 102 runs in 27 overs with the loss of two wickets. India don't need more runs. Their trial is only 24 runs. It looks like it will be out in four to five overs of the second session and India will give a good level lead because now Rahul and Iyer are batting. A is here and India is at a good stage with only three wickets lost. I hope that India will give England a lead of 250 runs very well. It will be very difficult for England to win this Test because it is actually impossible in the current situation it is very easy for India to win because India is better now. This Test in India is very important because it is a very beneficial match for the championship and it will be very beneficial for both the teams. Hope India win the match now let's see what happens.

Ben Stokes does not have many options, Hartley is the only bowler who has been far more economical after bowling 20 overs. He is trying his level best to stop the run's flow by trying to put on pressure from one end. I feel a lead of 250 runs as lead is more than enough for India to win this test match. Our three spinners are all we need to get more than half the wickets of the English side. The ball is moving which shows the pitch is now suited for a good spin attack.

India team is fit enough for test match they are all performing well one batsman after another. Especially the opening batsman Yashasvi Jaiswal has done well for the team, he got out with 80 runs off 76 balls alone. Currently standing at the crease are Rahul and Shreyas Iyer, these two batsmen have collected enough runs for the Indian team and have given a lot of support as the current pair. But compared to the England team, they are not able to perform enough bowling as the Indian team has lost three wickets so far. England can easily meet the target of 246 runs given by the team. India team has scored 212 runs for the loss of 3 wickets, and can only score 34 runs, this message is sent by India team but they can score more runs later today which will put pressure on England team.
