India is currently playing the fourth Test in Manchester, looking to dominate early to evade their trail in the series. The Manchester track is expected to be another flat track, marking India batting first after Ben Stokes chose to bowl again.
Indian openers Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul once again took the field to mark the proceedings of the Indian innings. KL Rahul comes from a comprehensive Lord's Test, where the Indian opener scored a stunning hundred in the first innings and was the second-highest run-getter in the second with 39 more.
However, Yashasvi Jaiswal, who made a good start to the series with a hundred at Headingley and backed it with another half-century in Birmingham, could not get himself going at Lord's. The youngster hence feels the heat of a do-or-die must-win Test at Manchester.
Yashasvi Jaiswal, unlike KL Rahul, comes out from a weak show at Lord's; hence, the pressure might be straight on the Indian youngster. He looked disturbed by Chris Woakes, who troubled him with several balls that nipped back into the batter.
In the 9th over of the game, Woakes, who is not known for sheer pace, came in to bowl his 5th delivery of the over, and as soon as the ball struck the bat, it was broken, left in two pieces.

However, the credit is not entirely to the bowler, as Jaiswal played the shot with a probable loose, high-held grip that led to the occurrence. Karun Nair was seen steaming in with a set of bats after the incident.
