Today's day will be in honour of the late Graham Thorpe, who contributed massively towards England and Surrey cricket. Plenty of fans seen sporting the white headband that he made famous, messages Kaushik from the venue.
Pitch Report | Cheteshwar Pujara: There was lot of dampness yesterday which has caused some footmarks. This is a pitch that will be challenging for the batter. There is enough for the seamers but at the same time the England seamers didn't bowl really well. They were very wayward and that is what the Indian seamers will look to correct whenever they get to bowl. This pitch won't get easy to batting as the Test progresses either.
A much brighter day at the Oval. The forecast is only expected to get better as the day progresses, pings Kaushik from the venue.
