Live England vs India: Score and latest updates from first Test, day two at Headingley
10:00AM Can England fight back on day two? It is advantage India after day one of the series as they ended the first day at Headingley on 359/3. Centuries from Yashasvi Jaiswal and new captain Shubman Gil led India to a dominant day despite being put into bat by Ben Stokes. It was a chastening day for England in the field having won the toss and opted to bowl first. Stokes' decision at the toss was a talking point after the first day's play, with former England captain Michael Vaughan particularly critical of that call. 'Within the first hour it was a good pitch, so it is not easy to restrict runs,' Vaughan said on Test Match Special. 'Ben Stokes is still positive and he will come back tomorrow [today] saying let's get seven wickets. 'I am an old-school traditionalist here at Leeds that when the sun is shining, with dry weather, you bat. I was staggered when he said he was going to bowl. Traditions are out the window. You always have to pick your decisions on that moment, and not things that you did here years ago. It cannot affect what the decision is today [yesterday]. 'You look at the England side and their strength is in the batting. And there is inexperience in the bowling. Ben clearly had a gut feeling, and sometimes it has worked. We always say that on this surface, it is flat. But we will not know that for sure until we see Jasprit Bumrah bowl.' In the last nine home Tests England have won the toss, they have batted first once and won six of those matches. The last six Test matches on this ground have been won by the team bowling first. Jaiswal's incredible record against England continued yesterday; it was his fifth Test century and third against England. In the last series played between these sides in India in 2024, Jaiswal scored a mammoth 712 runs. Speaking after the first day's play, Jaiswal expressed his delight at his performance and spoke of the importance of their preparation for this series. 'It was very, very good and we all did well today. It was amazing to go out and bat, enjoy the English summer as well so we are very happy. I just try to be myself and go out there and enjoy the game. That is what I do all the time. We had very good practice sessions and matches for a few weeks. We were trying to make it as simple as possible. If there is a loose ball I try to go for it. I was just thinking to focus on my process because I have worked very hard in my preparation. I was just trying in myself and have that desire to do well. I really enjoyed it.' Gill has taken over the Test captaincy from Rohit Sharma and yesterday marked his first Test ton outside of Asia. Day two gets under way at 11am BST.

England v India: first men's cricket Test, day two
Update: Date: 2025-06-21T09:17:02.000Z Title: When you win the toss at Headingley Content: – cliche klaxon – you're supposed to look up (at the weather) rather than down at the pitch. England did neither: they looked backwards at the data, which told them the last six Tests in Leeds have been won by the team bowling first. A seventh really would be magnificent. Update: Date: 2025-06-21T09:15:05.000Z Title: Read Ali Martin's day one report Content: This being Headingley, so often a scene of the absurd and a ground where the last six Tests have been won by the side who bowled first, England will refuse to believe they are snookered. By the same token, inviting a team to bat first under clear skies and then having them dominate all three sessions was clearly suboptimal. The air was soupy, the outfield fast, and England failed to locate the Headingley length. Update: Date: 2025-06-21T09:15:05.000Z Title: Preamble Content: Ever have one of those days you wish you could live all over again? England's decagon of destiny, as nobody is calling it, got off to a honking start yesterday when India strolled to 359 for three after being put into bat by Ben Stokes. As ill-conceived as Stokes' decision was, we should remember that India would have done the same. The main reasons for India's dominance were the brilliance of Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill, poster boys for a new India, and a rusty, erratic performance from England's three main seamers. Chris Woakes, Brydon Carse and Josh Tongue all went at more than 4.3 per over, a situation that in some cultures would be described as sub-optimal. England will surely bowl better today, buoyed as much as anything by precedent: they are the only team in Test history to win two games after bowling first and conceding 500. Right now, although India are in complete control, there is a credible path to victory for England. Not sure that'll be the case if Rishabh Pant is still batting at lunch. If Pant tees off today, England may have to countenance something even more disgusting than defeat: a draw.
