Rahul, Pant Centuries Set Up India at Headingley

KL Rahul scored a vital 137 on Day 4 of the first Test against England at Headingley, becoming the first Asian opener with three Test centuries in England. He shared a 195-run partnership with Rishabh Pant, who became the first Indian wicketkeeper to score centuries in both innings of a Test. Their efforts set England a challenging target of 371 runs, with India in a commanding position despite the absence of senior players Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. England finished Day 4 on 21/0, keeping the match outcome uncertain due to their aggressive 'Bazball' approach. Several batting records were broken, underscoring the historical significance of Rahul and Pant's performances. The final day promises a dramatic finish as both teams remain in contention.
