IND vs AFG Live Score, One-Off Test Match Day 2: India declare at 564/8 after Washington Sundar's fifty

IND vs AFG Live Score, One-Off Test Match Day 2: Afghanistan enjoyed a productive opening session on the second morning but India remained in complete control of the one-off Test, reaching 475 for six at lunch thanks largely to fine knocks from Shubman Gill and Rishabh Pant.

Pant stole the show with a responsible innings of 81 that showcased both his flair and maturity. The left-hander curbed his natural attacking instincts and built his innings patiently, choosing the right deliveries to punish. His 121-ball effort contained six boundaries and three sixes and seemed destined to end in a century before debutant spinner Nangeyalia Kharote deceived him with a significantly slower delivery. Pant's attempted lofted shot only resulted in a simple catch, denying the crowd the fireworks they had hoped for.

Gill too failed to add substantially to his overnight score, falling for 126 after Mohammad Saleem found just enough movement away from the bat to force an edge. The wicket ended a valuable 169-run stand and gave Afghanistan a much-needed breakthrough.

Saleem continued his impressive spell by dismissing Dhruv Jurel, whose decision to leave a reversing delivery proved costly as his off-stump was disturbed. With four wickets to his name, the seamer was Afghanistan's most successful bowler.

Azmatullah Omarzai was equally impressive with the second new ball, consistently troubling the Indian batters and beating the outside edge on several occasions, though luck deserted him.

Despite losing three wickets in the session, India maintained their march towards a massive total, with Washington Sundar and debutant Manav Suthar unbeaten at the break.

IND vs AFG Live Score, One-Off Test Match Day 2: Rishabh Pant produced a measured yet entertaining knock of 81 to silence his critics as India tightened their grip on the one-off Test against Afghanistan, reaching 475 for six at lunch on the second day on Sunday.

Pant, who resumed his innings alongside skipper Shubman Gill, mixed his trademark aggression with unusual restraint during a 121-ball stay that included six fours and three sixes. Rather than attacking every delivery, the wicketkeeper-batter picked his moments carefully and looked set for a century before debutant left-arm spinner Nangeyalia Kharote outfoxed him with a slower delivery. Pant charged down the track but failed to get to the pitch of the ball, offering a simple catch.

Earlier, Gill added 23 runs to his overnight score before Mohammad Saleem produced a fine delivery that moved away just enough to induce an edge and end the Indian captain's innings at 126. The dismissal broke a 169-run partnership.

Saleem struck again when Dhruv Jurel misjudged one that reversed sharply to crash into his off-stump. The Afghanistan pacer emerged as the visitors' standout performer with figures of 4 for 109.

Azmatullah Omarzai impressed with the second new ball and repeatedly beat the bat without reward. At the interval, Washington Sundar and debutant Manav Suthar were unbeaten on 14 and 9 respectively as India remained firmly on course for a mammoth first-innings total.
