Cricket Clash at Kennington: India's Fight vs. England's Chase

Mohammed Siraj set the tone early at the Kennington Oval, sending Zak Crawley to the pavilion and leaving England with a daunting 324 runs to reach their target against India, with two full days of play remaining.

By the close of Day 3, England was poised at 50/1, courtesy of a resilient Ben Duckett, who remained unbeaten on 34. Earlier, India managed to post a total of 396, largely buoyed by Washington Sundar's explosive 53 and Yashasvi Jaiswal's elegant century at the crease.

Despite early setbacks, including the controversial dismissal of Siraj, India showcased resilience, with Sundar notching key runs. England, in their pursuit, banked on their openers for a fighting stand, as the match promises a thrilling finish.
