A Thread

In appreciation of Team India

No one can whistle a symphony. It takes a whole orchestra to play it.

There was lot of speculation on Rohit Sharma about his match fitness as he coming back from injury&hardquarantine. But Rohit preferred to answer with his bat & as always with 26&52runs as Team Indian go past with 50+partnership after 15innings. Rohit as Opener

#RohitSharma

Many were excused him with an inexperience & too young to play an overseas Test Match. But he appears to be an elegant and classy batsman who is almost a natural fit in the spot. And have the highest partnership with Rohit of 141runs for the 1st wicket at SCG.

#ShubmanGill

Many has the problem with the approach of Cheteshwar Pujara despite Test Match being a game of patience. He brings the balance to team with his kind of defence & shots he played as he faced crucial 381 balls with 50 & 77 runs. Completed his 6k test runs.


#Pujara

A captain Anjikya Rahane a calm head yet motivating factor into this Team. His on field presence of mind specially when working with limited resource,rotation of bowlers placement of fielders. Captain Rahane an undefeated Captain in Test Cricket.

#AjinkyaRahane

While he may not be best gloveman for overseas for some but Rishabh Pant forced them to think again as he becomes the1st wicket keeper batsman among Asians to hold most test runs512at an avg of 56.88. His 97 in the 2nd inning despite being injured will be special

#RishabhPant

The resilience Hanuma Vihari showed specially in 2nd inning with hamstring injury he survived 161 balls for just 23 runs & amazing partnership with  Ashwin to save the day. Well played & wish you speedy recovery.

#HanumaVihari

GOAT is the word for Ravichandran Ashwin anna.

With ball&took 3 important wicket with around 3.45eco

Bat survived 128 balls 39runs despite being tweak back & had treatment on his ribs.

But as he said : you are bruised and battered, it is important to hang in there.
#Ashwin

Sir Ravindra Jadeja an underrated all rounder. He proved everytime with his ball bat&even in fielding. He's a complete asset.Took 4wickets with 3.44eco in1st inning. Unfortunately dislocated his thumb bt still ready to bat in 2nd inning.The commitment level. Respect.

#Jadeja

Jasprit Bumrah world class bowler&leading the bowling in the absence of any other senior or experience bowler as Shami out due to injury.Had some bad luck faced abuse bt against all odd he took 3wickets with 2.89eco.His smiling face shows the character he has.

The journey of Mohammad Siraj is very inspiring.Recently lost his father couldn't attend his last rites due2 quarantine rules. Its his father's dream.Played with pride despite been targeted with racist abused. Bt never let al this effect his bowling took 2ws with 3.14eco.
