England removes India's top order as Shubman Gill falls for 12 at Old Trafford

England claimed three wickets during the afternoon session after India reached 149 runs for three batsmen dismissed at tea on the opening day of the fourth Test match. The Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy contest at Old Trafford saw the visitors add 71 runs to their morning total of 78. Chris Woakes dismissed KL Rahul for 46 when Zak Crawley caught the opener at third slip after a thick edge. Liam Dawson secured his first Test wicket in eight years by removing Yashasvi Jaiswal for 58 through a catch by Brook at first slip. Ben Stokes trapped captain Shubman Gill leg before wicket for 12 runs when the batsman misjudged an incoming delivery.

B. Sai Sudharsan remains unbeaten on 26 runs while Rishabh Pant has scored three runs without dismissal. The duo must build a substantial partnership to secure India's position heading into the second day. England bowlers finally found success after a morning session that produced no breakthroughs for the home team. The match represents a critical juncture for both sides in this ongoing series between the two nations.
