Riding on Kuldeep Yadav's stellar show with the ball, India made a remarkable comeback in the ongoing Test match against England in Dharamsala. 

After winning the toss, England had a positive start as Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett rode their luck to form a solid 64-run opening stand. However, India's prominent wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav swung the momentum in the hosts' favour, striking thrice in eleven overs. 

While Ben Duckett and Ollie Pope were deceived by the chinaman bowler, Crawley had no answer to one of his magical deliveries that turned significantly to shatter his leg stump. 

The incident occurred in the 38th over when the game was hanging in the balance, with England firmly placed at 137 for two. After starting his over with a dot ball, Kuldeep enticed Crawley for a drive through a tossed-up delivery. 

The Englishman went forward and tried to defend the ball but failed miserably in his attempt, with the ball sneaking through the bat-pad gap to hit the leg stump. While Kuldeep celebrated the dismissal, Crawley had admiration for the bowler while making his way back to the dugout. 

After Crawley's departure, veteran batter Jonny Bairstow joined Joe Root in the middle. As of writing, the visitors were 147 for three in 40 overs, desperately attempting to rebuild the innings.
