Bumrah looked in good shape, coming on the back of a good IPL season. The Indian spearhead was razor sharp and targeted the channel outside off stump for Gill. He also cramped his skipper for room with quick back-of-the-length delivery. Gill meawnhile showed good judgement, leaving the swing deliveries outside off on length.

Jasprit Bumrah will not play all 5 Tests, but he is easily the best bowler in India’s squad. The Indian spearhead has an aura about him, and he was in full flow at the Kent Cricket Ground. He was constantly in chat with coach Morne Morkel, bowling seaming lengths and nailing surprise yorkers.

England might not have James Anderson or Stuart Broad in their attack anymore, but Shubman’s record outside Asia is patchy. Now entrusted with leadership, Gill has to shoulder the batting and there is no better preparation than facing the best bowler in the world.
