By the way, the replacement ball had to be changed later into the first session. Broad, who spoke against Dukes’s ball on the commentary, decided to take the social media to express his displeasure. The former English stimulator said the ball should be like a great bag that barely noticed them during the match.
Broad said the ball had become a problem and changed during all shifts. The English legend said the ball should take 80 overs and not 10.
“The cricket ball should be like a gentle goalkeeper of the goal. He barely noticed it. We have to talk too much about the ball because it’s such a problem and virtually every shift has changed. Unacceptable.

This is not the first time that the Indian team had a problem with Ball during the ongoing series. Rishabh Pant was punished during the first test that he showed disagreement on the fact that he was not satisfied with the ball, and Gill criticized him after the Edgbaston test.
