India Fights Back: Nair, Sundar Steer Team to 204/6

India ended Day 1 of the Test match precariously positioned at 204/6. The team had earlier stumbled to a shaky 153/6, before a crucial 51-run partnership between Sanju Samson (52*, not out) and Washington Sundar (19*, not out) steadied the ship.

Samson’s unbeaten half-century provided much-needed stability after a series of quick wickets. His composed batting laid the foundation for a potential recovery on Day 2.

Sundar, playing a supportive role, provided valuable support to Samson, ensuring a less dramatic end to the day’s play. The duo will be crucial to India’s hopes of posting a challenging first innings total.

The match remains delicately poised. India’s ability to build on this late-day partnership will be key to dictating the match’s momentum in the coming days. This fightback will be closely watched by fans as it determines the course of the crucial Test series.
