KL Rahul has been in fine form, and he needs to shoulder the responsibility once again as India will be looking for a target around 500 runs.
Apart from Yashasvi Jaiswal's wicket, England bowlers have looked pretty ordinary on day four, and they need to pull up their socks to have any chance when the match resumes on day four.
Despite Jamie Smith and Harry Brook's record-breaking partnership, the Indian pace duo of Mohammed Siraj and Akash Deep ran through the batting lineup to hand India a 180-run lead. Jasprit Bumrah was rested, keeping his workload in mind, and it remains to be seen how India can perform in the 4th innings.
As quoted by ESPN Cricinfo, Mohammed Siraj reflected on his bowling: “It's unbelievable because I was waiting for a long time. I have been bowling well but not getting wickets. I have only got four-wicket hauls here, so getting six here is very special. The wicket was very slow but when you are given a responsibility to lead the attack, my aim was to not try too much and just bowl in the right area and bowl with discipline. My mindset was to keep it tight and not give away runs.”
Prasidh Krishna conceded 72 runs in 13 overs at an astronomical economy rate of 5.50. He was smashed for a massive 23 runs by Jamie Smith, and his form will be a massive concern for Gautam Gambhir.
Jasprit Bumrah was given a rest, keeping in mind his workload,d and both Akash Deep and Mohammed Siraj have lived up to the hype as they shared 10 wickets among them.
The likes of Karun Nair and Nitish Kumar Reddy need to come out with all guns blazing as India aim to push the England bowlers to the brink on day four.
In a video released by BCCI, Vaibhav Suryavanshi said, “I am feeling very good. This is my first Test in England and I am seeing how the game is going. I am feeling very good. We all came to watch the match. We got a lot of inspiration. Shubman Gill is a role model for us. Everyone’s dream is to play red-ball cricket for their country."
In an interaction with Cricbuzz, Michael Vaughan said, “India should win this game, it should be 1-1 going to Lord's. Bumrah will come back into the side, probably at the expense of Prasidh Krishna. If India play the same intense cricket they have done for three days, if they can carry on that mindset they should ask enough questions of England this week to level the series.”
This happens to be the highest score by an Indian outside Asia since Sachin Tendulkar's 241 at SCG in 2004. Shubman Gill is also the third Indian after Sunil Gavaskar and Rahul Dravid to score a Test double hundred on English soil.
He is also the third visiting batter after Graeme Smith and Zaheer Abbas to score a double hundred at Edgbaston.
The weather could play a big hindrance in India's push for a victory on day four at Edgbaston. There are possibilities of showers throughout day four, and any loss of match time will only prove to be a bonus for England
The Indian team finished day three at 64/1, gaining a huge 244-run lead. With a tall batting lineup to follow, both KL Rahul and Karun Nair will be hoping to inflict some more misery on the English bowlers.;
