As Jamie Smith led England's counterattack after two early wickets on day 3 (Jul 4) of the second Test at Edgbaston, Birmingham, India entered the record books of Test history for all the wrong reasons. India, who are without premier pacer Jasprit Bumrah for the Test, conceded 176 runs in the first session - the third most by them since 2015 in a session. India have conceded more than 172 runs in a session only twice - 213 against Australia in 2015 and 176 against England in 2024. Smith, meanwhile, hit his century - the joint-third fastest for England in Tests and fourth fastest against India in red-ball.
