Pope scores century as England fight back against India on Day 2
Gulf Today
|June 22, 2025
Ollie Pope made a defiant century as England fought back despite Jasprit Bumrah’s three-wicket haul and a blistering hundred from Rishabh Pant for India on Saturday's second day of the first Test at Headingley.
-

England were 209-3 in reply to India’s first-innings 471 at stumps, still a deficit of 262 runs, with Pope exactly 100 not out after being dropped on 60.
But they had been 4-1 when Pope came to the crease after a superb Bumrah delivery had Zak Crawley caught by Karun Nair off just the sixth ball of the innings.
And after Surrey right-hander Pope reached his century, a gripping day of Test cricket ended with late drama involving two England batsmen on their Yorkshire home ground.
Joe Root fell to Bumrah for 28 when he carelessly steered him straight to first slip and, in the last over of the day, it looked as if the fast bowler had dismissed Harry Brook for a duck when the rising star top-edged a needlessly aggressive pull and was well caught by Mohammed Siraj at midwicket.
But the third umpire confirmed a no-ball to spare Brook's blushes.
Bumrah ended the day with 3-48 from 12 overs, having taken all the England wickets to fall so far in the first of this this five-Test series.
Arguably the world’s best all-format bowler, Bumrah could have had even better figures but for dropped catches with the usually reliable Ravindra Jadeja putting down Ben Duckett at backward point on 15.
