His figures of 3 for 128 came at an economy rate of 6.40 runs per over, surpassing the previous record held by Varun Aaron, who went for 5.91 per over in Adelaide in 2014. England\u2019s batters attacked Prasidh relentlessly, forcing him to struggle with his lengths and consistency, although his breakthroughs did help India stay in the contest. This performance is likely to spark conversations about India\u2019s pace bowling options and their bench strength in testing overseas conditions.<\/p>\n<p>India\u2019s Day 3 Test Review: Cloudy skies ahead | Weather twist at Headingley<\/p>\n<p> Despite Prasidh\u2019s expensive spell, India stayed competitive thanks largely to <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/jasprit-bumrah\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jasprit Bumrah<\/a>\u2019s outstanding five-wicket haul that kept the hosts from taking a big first innings lead.
