India vs England Live Score Updates, 2nd Test Day 1: Ind vs Eng Rohit Sharma’s boys will have to bounce back in the second Test against England and try to level the series. Ben Stokes and his team outsmarted India in Hyderabad. The visitors won the first Test by 28 runs, thanks to a brilliant Tom Hartley. The debutant slow left-arm orthodox bowler took 7 wickets in the second innings and bundled out the hosts for 202 runs.
Another debutant, Ollie Pope, must also get all the credit for his brilliant 196 in the second innings. The English batter helped his team achieve 420, which India eventually failed to beat.
Conditions in Vizag will be different. While Hyderabad offered spin from the word go, Vizag should provide more opportunities for batters in the initial phase of the game.
