Pataudi Trophy 2021, 2nd Test: These are the records scripted on Day 4

It was a frustrating show from both India and England on Sunday, Day 4 of the second Test for the Pataudi Trophy 2021 at Lord's in London. While India began its second innings right from the opening ball on Day 4, it could manage just 181 runs and lost six wickets.

The English bowlers also became frustrated at a point, as India extended the lead to 154 runs. However, records were scripted once again as we take a look.

Cheteshwar Pujara plays his slowest
Pujara managed to score just 12 runs after facing 101 deliveries. As a result, it was his slowest 100-ball innings, going past his previous slowest of 24 runs off 103 against Australia in Perth, 2018.

Pujara-Rahane pull off a slowest in 20 years
Pujara and Rahane contributed 50 runs for the fourth wicket off 175 deliveries, India's second-slowest in the format in the past 20 years. The slowest during this phase happens to be 50 off 246 between Hanuma Vihari and Ravincandran Ashwin against Australia in Sydney this year.

Moeen Ali joins the 100-wicket club
Getting rid of Rahane and Ravindra Jadeja allowed Moeen to go past his 100 Test wickets in England. While he has become the seventh spinner to do so, he has the best strike rate of all (51.78).

Match summary
Batting first, India managed 364, while England managed 391, thus taking a lead of 27 runs in the first innings by Day 3. On Day 4, India played in a slow fashion, extending its lead to 154 runs after losing six wickets.
Brief scores: India 364 & 181/6 (Rahane- 61; Wood- 3/49) leads England 391 (Root- 180*, Bairstow- 57; Siraj- 4/94) by 154 runs.
