Ben Duckett, Zak Crawley break 30-year-old feat as duo dismantle record books with 188-run opening stand

England had a daunting task in front of them. 371 to get in the fourth and final innings of a Test is never easy. No matter what approach you play with, chasing more than 350 runs in the final innings is a difficult feat for every team. However, England's opening batters Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett broke the back of a 371-run chase as the duo put on 188 runs for the opening wicket in the final innings of the Headingley Test against India on Tuesday.

(Action Images via Reuters) Entering Day 5, England had all ten wickets in hand and the hosts required 350 runs more for the win. At stumps on Day 4, England's score read 21/0. The opening batters Crawley and Duckett were measured to start off with as they saw off the opening spells by Mohammed Siraj and Jasprit Bumrah. After the first hour, the duo started to play their natural game, and no bowler was spared. Duckett was the more attacking batter between the two, and the southpaw eventually brought up his century in the second session of Day 5. Crawley also looked set for a much-deserved century. However, he ended up losing his wicket to Prasidh Krishna, and he walked back to the hut after scoring 65 runs off 126 balls.

This is the highest stand in the fourth innings in Headingley, while it is the second-highest for England. The 188-run partnership is also the fifth highest by any opening pair in the fourth innings and the highest since 1995.

This was also the first time that two opening batters hit fifty-plus scores in the fourth innings of a Headingley Test. Ben Duckett scores century With his century against India, Ben Duckett registered the first ton by an England opening batter in the fourth innings of a Test since Alastair Cook's 109 not out against Bangladesh in Mirpur in 2010. This is also Ben Duckett's first second-innings century of his career. Soon after getting the wicket of Zak Crawley, Prasidh Krishna got another one as he rattled the stumps of Ollie Pope (8). Earlier, India set England a target of 371 runs in the fourth and final innings, owing to centuries by KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant in the second innings. The Headingley Test began with England captain Ben Stokes winning the toss and opting to bowl first.

Jaiswal lambasted after latest dropped catch leaves Siraj incensed: 'Should be dropped for the next game'

Yashasvi Jaiswal put down yet another chance in the first Test against England at Headingley in Leeds, handing Ben Duckett a lifeline on 98 and allowing him to complete his sixth Test hundred during the home team's chase of a target of 371. read more Yashasvi Jaiswal failed to collect the ball after running from the square-leg fence, handing Ben Duckett on 98 off Mohammed Siraj's bowling. Reuters Things have gone downhill for Yashasvi Jaiswal since he brought up a fine century on the opening day of the first Test against England in Headingley . The opener dropped not one but three catches during England's innings, including off Jasprit Bumrah's bowling, allowing the hosts to capitalise on the lifelines and mount a solid first innings total that nearly cancelled India's 471 out. And after falling cheaply in India's second innings, getting caught-behind off Brydon Carse's bowling on 4, Jaiswal dropped yet another catch on the final day of the series opener in Leeds. This time off Mohammed Siraj's bowling, leaving the Hyderabadi pacer absolutely incensed. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The incident took place during the 39th over of the English innings, shortly before a shower interrupted halted their chase of the 371-run target that had been doing swimmingly so far on the final day. Siraj, who had been bowling much better lines in the second innings after proving expensive in the first, bowled a short ball at Ben Duckett, who was batting on 98. Duckett, who had scored 62 in the first innings, got a thick top-edge while attempting to pull the short delivery, and had his heart in his mouth as he witnessed Jaiswal charge at the ball from the square-leg boundary. And while the ball did land in his hands, the 23-year-old could not complete the catch, with the ball popping out of his hands, much to the disappointment of his teammates. It certainly wasn't an easy chance for Jaiswal, who had to run forward and put in a slide, compared to the chances that had come his way at the slips and gully. But with absolutely nothing going their way so far on the final day, the Indians had to grab any and every chance that came their way. Duckett made the most of the lifeline and brought up his century, his sixth in Tests, with a boundary in the very next over off Ravindra Jadeja's bowling.

"He could even surpass Rahul Dravid's six Test hundreds": Manjrekar after Pant's twin tons in England

New Delhi [India], June 24 (ANI): Following India's vice-captain Rishabh Pant's twin centuries in the ongoing Leeds Test at Headingley, former cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar believes that Pant can surpass former skipper Rahul Dravid in scoring the most centuries for India on English soil. The wicketkeeper batter shattered a handful of records with his flamboyant yet composed century on Day 4 of the second innings of the first Test against England at Headingley. Speaking on 'Match Centre Live' following the conclusion of Day 4 of the first Test of India's tour of England, JioHotstar expert Sanjay Manjrekar offered high praise on Rishabh Pant's historic batting feats as a wicketkeeper 'When you look at all of Rishabh Pant's achievements, the first instinct is to think of him purely as a batter -- and understandably so. When you're talking about batting exploits in England, scoring twin hundreds, the names he's being compared with are legends like Dilip Vengsarkar, Rahul Dravid, Sachin Tendulkar, and Sunil Gavaskar. But here's the remarkable part -- he's also a wicketkeeper. That's what makes it almost unbelievable,' Manjrekar said at the end of play on Day 4. 'I know someone like Kumar Sangakkara had a phenomenal batting record, but he wasn't quite the keeper that Rishabh Pant is. Pant is India's first and last choice as a wicketkeeper in this Test side -- and that says a lot,' he added In the end, Manjrekar said that there are four Tests still remaining in the England tour, and there are chances that Pant can go ahead of Dravid (6) in scoring the most tons for the national team in England 'If you look at the numbers -- most hundreds by Indians in Tests in England -- Rahul Dravid leads with six. And suddenly, you have Pant's name in that same elite bracket. There's a nice little twist -- there are two Rahul's in this story. You've got KL Rahul, and you've got Rishabh Pant. Who knows, by the time this series is done, Pant could match or even surpass Rahul Dravid. There are still four Tests to go in this series -- that's potentially eight innings for Pant. He's already started in near-perfect fashion,' the former player concluded. After his 134 (178) exploits in the first innings, Pant acted as the catalyst, with KL Rahul serving as the driving force, as they forged a rollicking 195-run partnership to put India in control of the proceedings. Pant switched from his natural belligerent instinct to a robust defensive technique according to the need of the hour. He had to bid his time and slowly moved from 96 to 99. Eventually, he carved the ball towards the deep point off Shoaib Bashir and scurried for a single to become the first Indian batter to smash a century in each innings of a Test in England. Pant also entered India's special twin centuries club, featuring icons Vijay Hazare, Sunil Gavaskar (3), Rahul Dravid (2), Virat Kohli, Ajinkya Rahane, and Rohit Sharma. The 27-year-old swashbuckler joined an exclusive club and became the second designated wicketkeeper batter to boast hundreds in each innings after Andy Flower, who achieved the feat against South Africa in Harare in 2001 with scores of 142 and 199*. Pant also joined Don Bradman, Hansie Cronje, Shivnarine Chanderpaul, Kumar Sangakkara, and Daryl Mitchell among visiting batters with five consecutive 50-plus scores in England, with Australia's talismanic star Steven Smith heading the list with seven. The explosive southpaw finished his time with the bat in the series opener with 134 and 118 (252), the highest match aggregate for a designated wicketkeeper in a Test in England, bettering Alec Stewart's 204 (40 & 164) against South Africa at Old Trafford in 1998. Pant's knock concluded with nine sixes, the joint-most by a batter in a Test in England, equaling the efforts of Andrew Flintoff (vs Aus, Edgbaston, 2005) and captain Ben Stokes (vs Aus, Lord's, 2023). Overall, during his fruitful run in England, Pant has garnered 808 runs at an average of 42.52 in 10 Tests and 19 innings, with four centuries and two fifties. His strike rate is 69.89. (ANI)
