A crushing 227-run defeat in Chennai couldn’t dent Team India’s spirit as India skipper Virat Kohli insisted that they would learn from their mistakes and come back stronger like always in the remaining three Tests and hand England a tough fight. India were bundled out for 192 on Day 5, despite valiant knocks from Shubman Gill (50) and Kohli (72).
Our former Knight Ishant Sharma stands literally tall (6’4”) among all his contemporary fast-bowling colleagues. The lanky Delhi lad completed his 300th Test wicket today and we couldn’t help but reminisce his brilliance that we have been catered to in the past 14 years. He has had his share of misfortunes, injuries, dull phases and yet the fact that he is just two Tests short of playing his 100th Test shows that he has been trusted by the Indian team management time and again.
India made a brilliant comeback on Monday, restricting the English batsmen for just 178 in the second innings and will now need 381 more runs to win the match after ending Day 4 on 39-1. Our talented opener Shubman Gill (15*) and the rock-solid Cheteshwar Pujara (12*) are holding the fort and they will have a crucial role to play to take India to a commanding position tomorrow. Rohit Sharma (12) was the only man to fall, castled by Jack Leach.
Ravichandran Ashwin achieved a rare milestone on Monday when he became the first spinner in over a century to pick up a wicket off the first ball of an innings in Test cricket. He dismissed England’s opener Rory Burns for a golden duck in the second innings of the first Test match at Chennai.
Ishant Sharma became the 6th Indian to join the 300-wicket Club in Tests when he picked up England’s Dan Lawrence. Ishant, who recently recovered from an injury that he had sustained during IPL 2020, has been in good form and looked impressive in the ongoing first Test.
Three days of domination from England and India are battling to save a follow-on now. In response to England’s first-innings total of 578, India are in for some real trouble as they ended Day 3 of the first Test on 257-6 in Chennai, still trailing by 321 runs. Washington Sundar (33) and Ravichandran Ashwin remained unbeaten at Stumps, trying to bring India out of the soup.
Joe Root became the first ever cricketer to score an international double hundred in Tests on his 100th appearance as England kept India under a batting siege, scoring 555/8 at the end of Day 2 of the first Test in Chennai.
A tough opening day to the first Test in Chennai saw India concede 263 runs to England for only three wickets on a slow and sluggish pitch that barely provided any help to the bowlers. Winning the toss and deciding to bat first, England rode on Joe Root’s century to end the first day’s proceedings on a high.
Virat Kohli returns to the fold as India take on England in the 4-Test series opener in Chennai with sights set on getting a step closer to the World Test Championships final berth. India currently top the table with 430 points while England sit at No.4 with 412 points.
From buying candies with money earned for batting, to wearing the Team India cap, Gill has come a long way in a very short time indeed
Our Kiwi speedster won the the best Men’s T20I Bowling Performance of 2020 for his brilliant 5/21 against the Windies during the first T20I in Auckland last November.
“We will have some opportunity at the mini auction to maybe do some fine-tuning. So, really looking forward to it and we are ready for IPL 2021!”
