England in Driving Seat On The Day 5 of Headingley Test

Chasing A Mammoth Total of 371 Runs, The English Openers Started Brilliantly on the Final Day. After Carefully Surviving the Initial Hour—When The Ball was meaningful Help to the Bowlers—They accelerated at the right time. By lunch, the English openers Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett Had Stitched Together A Phenomenal 117-Run Partnership in Quick Time. With a strong batting lineup still to come, the hosts see to be in the driver’s seat.

For the Bowling Side, The Story Remained the Same As in the First Innings. Apart from Jasprit bumrah and Mohammed SirajThe Rest of the Bowlers Once Again Seemed to Be Missing the Mark in Leeds With Poor Bowling. Prasidh Krishna Was Expensive Once Again, Conceding 38 Run in Just 6 Overs. Although The Team Created A Few Chances in the First Session, With Several Deliverries Beating The Outside Edge, Both the Bowling and Fielding Efforts Have Been Sub-Par.
