England is a country where even the summers feel cooler and the temperature stays between 15 degrees to 20 degrees Celsius. However, 2025 has been different as the nation witnessed heatwaves and rising temperatures across different cities. The venues for the India vs England Test series are no different as the players are facing the heat.

It has affected their performances as the players have found it difficult to be at their physical best. The effect was felt on Day 2 of the Edgbaston Test as well. On Thursday, the temperature in Birmingham rose to nearly 25 degrees and the Indian batters needed a drinks break just 15 minutes into the start of play.

The play started at 3:30 PM IST and after 15 minutes, the first break was taken. This is when the England players tried to get under the skin of batter, Ravindra Jadeja who was looking in ominous touch. Some of the England players chirped - "15 minutes in the day and you want drinks, lads".

Not the first time English players sledged Indian batters

This is not the first time in the Edgbaston Test that the England players tried sledging the Indian batters to break their concentration. On Day 1, their skipper, Ben Stokes went after young Indian opener, Yashasvi Jaiswal as the duo were involved in a heated argument.

Jaiswal frustrated the England team with his aggressive yet calculated batting and this infuriated Ben Stokes who muttered something to the opening batter. However, Jaiswal didn’t flinch. Instead, he fired back with, "You don't want to hear it from me, come on!"

The moment went viral as the youngster wasn't unfazed by the opposition sledging and responded back in his style to demoralise Stokes and the entire English team. However, with the way Jadeja is playing on Day 2, expect a bit more war of words coming towards him.
