Team India batter B Sai Sudharsan had to make his way back to the dressing room only for 11 on Friday. His wicket fell moments before Stumps on Day 2 of the fifth Test against England at the Kennington Oval in London. The left-handed batter consulted with his batting partner, Yashasvi Jaiswal, and took the review, but it went as a waste.

The dismissal occurred in the 18th over, the last before Stumps on Day 2, sent down by Gus Atkinson. With Atkinson coming around the wicket, the ball pitched on the fourth stump but came back reasonably sharply and stayed low to hit Sai Sudharsan on the back foot. With ball-tracking returning all three reds, the 23-year-old had to return to the pavilion.

Sudharsan was replaced by the night watchman Akash Deep, who opened his account with a boundary. He managed to survive as Team India's score stood at 75/2 at Stumps.

Meanwhile, the Chennai-born cricketer had chipped in with a gritty 108-ball 38 on Day 1 at The Oval amid tough batting conditions. It proved decisive in helping his side reach a competitive total of 224. The 23-year-old had aimed to bat until stumps along with Jaiswal to help build India's lead on Day 3, but couldn't do it.

The visitors began Day 2 at 204/6 but collapsed to 224 all out as Gus Atkinson took a five-wicket haul on his return to the side. Karun Nair was the only Indian batter to get to fifty. England openers Ben Duckett and Zak Crawley got the hosts off to a breezy start, accumulating a 92-run stand in only 12.5 overs. Although Crawley (64) and Harry Brook (53) made fifties, none of the England batters made a big score to give the home side a healthy enough lead.

They eventually finished 23 runs ahead, but Jaiswal wiped it off with some expansive strokeplay. The opener is still batting at 51 as India now lead by 52 runs ahead of Day 3.
