IND vs AFG Live Score, One-off Test Match Day 3: India register biggest ever win, beat Afghanistan by an innings and 300 runs – The Tech Word News

IND vs AFG Live Score, One-off Test match Day 3: The Indian trio capitalized on poor shot selection from Afghanistan to leave the visitors staring at an innings defeat on the third day of the one-off Test on Monday. Asked to continue after debutant Manav Suthar dismissed them for 152 for 6 for 33, Afghanistan slumped to 98 for 5 at tea in the second innings, still needing 314 runs to make India bat again.

Washington Sundar proved to be the main destroyer in the afternoon with figures of 3 for 30 from eight overs while Mohammed Siraj and Kuldeep Yadav chipped in with a wicket each. Siraj provided the initial breakthrough before Kuldeep benefited from captain Shubman Gill’s tactical move to place Siraj at long-on to trick Rahmanullah Gurbaz into a risky aerial strike.

The Afghan batsmen repeatedly fell into the Indian trap. Gurbaz struggled to attack Kuldeep while first-innings half-centurion Rahmat Shah failed to clear Manav Suthar at mid-on against Washington. Left-arm opener Sediqullah Atal, who resisted mightily, also perished trying to hit the turn just before tea.

Earlier, Suthar completed a memorable debut with 6 for 33 to become only the 10th Indian and the seventh spinner in the country to take five wickets in his first Test. His relentless accuracy ensured that Afghanistan never recovered from the first innings collapse.
