The former Indian off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin shared a light moment since the recently closed third test at Lord’s and during the fourth shifts he told his father’s confidence, but fun prerequisites. When the game reached a tense climax, with the Indian courageous tail mounted resistance next to the versatile Ravindra Jadeja, Ashwin’s father boldly claimed that Mohammad Siraj would complete the match by hitting three six.
The test, which was already filled with drama, had both teams that published the same first shifts 387. England, in their second shifts, were connected only in 192, which gave India a unique opportunity to go 2-1 in the trophy of Anderson-Tendulkar. But the persecution of 193 in the fourth shift on the complex surface has never been easy. England’s Spirited Fightback, led by Captain Ben Stokes, turned the tide in favor of the hosts. Ravindra Jadeja stood high with the bat, holding one end together, but in the end the resistance of the lower order was not enough. India eventually did not reach 22 runs.
“Ben Stokes bowed incredible charm. I discussed it with my father-I was sure Siraj would finish it by breaking three six. I told him to shorten the jokes. Watching Stokes Bowl, even began to talk about his league games that behaved from both ends,” Ashwin shared his channel.
The 38-year-old added: “In both of his spells 9.2 and 10 exceeded Stokes bowling at 132-140 km / h. At one end, you had Jadeja as a fortress, building Indian resistance, and on the other, Stokes that did the same for England.”
While Stokes contributed only 77 runs through both shifts, its five goals with disciplined lines and lengths were the key to a close victory in England. Indian efforts, especially Jadejaho stand and tail resistance, ensured that the match went down to the wire.
Ashwin also emphasized the moment of grace and sports behavior in the game marked with heated exchanges in the field. After Siraj’s unfortunate release-the ball came out in the middle of the bat, but rolled back to the root of Joe and Zak Crawley of the stump and Zak Crawley could see the fast pitching.
“What battle. It was an amazing test match ———— both among the straights. Both teams pushed to the limits and it ended up on this note. Look at Crawley and Root, he comforted Siraj around him. This is the beauty of the test cricket.
