🏏 India vs England, 3rd Test-- SCA Stadium, Rajkot 🏏- Page 29

IND 326/5 (86)

CRR: 3.79

Day 1: Stumps

India's day as they have battled back superbly from 33/3. The revival came from Rohit Sharma and Jadeja who strung together 204 for the fourth wicket. Granted the wicket flattened out and conditions were easy for batting but both batters deserve all the credit for rescuing their side. Earlier on, India were in big trouble inside the first hour as Jaiswal, Gill and Patidar all fell. India sent Jadeja at 5 and it paid off handsomely. Rohit who got starts in the first two Tests got the hundred he was threatening. But he took on the short ball and found mid-wicket to give England another opening. Debutant Sarfaraz walked in and played so well, belying the fact that he was on debut.

Debutant Sarfaraz walked in and played so well, belying the fact that he was on debut.He reached 50 off 48 balls but his over-eagerness to get Jadeja to an 100 cost him as he was run-out. England have just taken the new-ball and after a nice night's sleep will come back hard tomorrow. The other centurion of the day - Jadeja, the hometown hero, as usual got runs at a place he knows so well. He will be key for India tomorrow as they look to get to 450-500

What happened. Had a busy day. The last score I saw was 93/3. And now it has suddenly changed?

Sarfaraz should have got chance in the team much before.

He should be in Indian team when Sachin retires but dirty politics denied him to get chance, his Averages are Most Staggering in First class cricket

Today on Debut his average Whopping 93 🛑
