Joe Root's composed, unbeaten half-century guided England to a historic victory in the Headingley Test, frustrating India's hopes. Root's innings, a blend of poise and precision, complemented the earlier explosive start by Duckett and Crawley. This win highlights England's 'Bazball' approach, showcasing both boldness and control.

On Day 2 of the Headingley Test, Mohammed Siraj's spirited bowling went unrewarded. England fought back, led by Josh Tongue's 4 for 86, causing an Indian collapse from 430/3 to 471 all out. Rishabh Pant's spectacular 146-ball century, featuring signature somersaults, and Shubman Gill's classy 147 were highlights before Tongue dismantled the tail post-lunch, swiftly ending India's innings.
