Ravi Shastri slapped the air in disgust. In his attempts to bounce Ollie Robinson, Mohammed Shami had bowled a wayward delivery that added five to England's lead, which was now up to 206. Two overs before his coach's ire, Shami had earned his captain Virat Kohli's remonstration from the slips after another harmless short and wide delivery with the second new ball as India looked to close England's spirited second innings. Those two moments typified a forgettable day at the office for the India seamer, one that was salvaged only by Jasprit Bumrah's brilliance.
