India will head into Day 3 of the one-off Test against Afghanistan firmly in control after a dominant all-round display in New Chandigarh. After piling up a massive 564/8 declared, powered by centuries from Shubman Gill (126) and KL Rahul, along with valuable contributions from Rishabh Pant (81) and Washington Sundar (52*), the hosts backed it up with a disciplined bowling effort. Afghanistan reached stumps on Day 2 at 113/5, still trailing by 451 runs, with Rahmat Shah unbeaten on 43. Debutant left-arm spinner Manav Suthar starred with figures of 3/21, while Prasidh Krishna chipped in with two wickets. India will look to wrap up Afghanistan’s first innings quickly on Day 3 and push for an innings victory, while the visitors need a major resistance from their lower order to avoid being forced to follow on.
