In the ongoing IND vs ENG 1st Test in Hyderabad, India's dominance continues to trouble England. After an impressive second day at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, India, led by Rohit Sharma, posted a formidable total of 421/7 in response to England's 246. This commanding performance gives India a substantial 175-run lead.

Rohit Sharma played a pivotal role in India's success, contributing significantly to their total score. The Men in Blue showcased their batting prowess, with Ravindra Jadeja and Axar Patel forming a resilient partnership. Currently, batting for the 8th wicket, they have added 63 runs, further strengthening India's lead. The home team looks poised to maintain their dominance in the series opener.

However, England faces multiple challenges, primarily with their bowling attack. Jack Leach's injury limited his contribution to only 16 overs out of the 87 bowled on the second day. This setback, coupled with the overall performance, has left England in a precarious position, with the match slipping away from their grasp. The visitors are in deep trouble, struggling to counter India's commanding presence.

As the match progresses, England pins its hopes on spinners such as Leach, Joe Root, Tom Hartley, and Rehan Ahmed to dismantle India's batting lineup. A strong bowling performance is crucial for England's chances to make a comeback. The situation demands a resilient batting display from England in the upcoming sessions to turn the tide in their favor.
