IND vs Eng Test Day 1 Highlights: Shubman Gill’s lapse Team India in trouble, 5 mistakes of the first day which can be heavy

IND vs Eng Test Day 1 Highlights: The English bowlers have won the first day of the fifth Test match between India and England at Kennington Oval. Oli Pope, captaining Ben Stokes, decided to win the toss and bowl first and did not give the Indian batsmen a chance to play openly. By the end of the first day’s play, Team India has scored just 204 runs losing 6 wickets. In the story of the first day, there are five such big turns which have taken the position of India to the backfoot.

Shubman Gill’s run out

At the beginning of the second session, Shubman Gill was run out in a very irresponsible manner. Gill went out to take a fast run as soon as he played defense on the backfoot off Gas Atkinson, but at the other end, batsman Sai Sudarshan refused to take the run. At that time Gill had reached half the pitch and Atkinson picked up the ball and threw him directly and scored him out. Shubman was on 21 runs at that time and was seen in good rhythm.

Sai Sudarshan’s incomplete innings

Sai Sudarshan, who came to bat at number three, tried to play and raised some hope after the initial shaking, but when he needed a big innings, he was dismissed by Josh Tung by scoring 38 runs. His wicket fell at a time when the team needed stability.

Yashasvi Jaiswal’s initial shock

Yashasvi Jaiswal, who is scoring continuously from the first Test, was dismissed in the first overs this time. He was lbw off Gas Atkinson. The umpire had not given him not out first, but England took DRS and Jaiswal returned to the pavilion after scoring just 2 runs. His wicket proved to be the first blow to put India on the backfoot.

KL Rahul’s careless shot

KL Rahul started well but on a personal score of 14 runs, he too became bowled by playing the wrong shot. He tried to play a cut shot off the ball of Chris Woakes, but the ball took the edge of his bat and went to the stumps. He was also dismissed when India was in dire need of a partnership.

Ravindra Jadeja’s cheap wicket

Ravindra Jadeja, who was seen in excellent form in the last match, could not do much this time. He scored 9 runs and caught wicketkeeper Jamie Smith off Josh Tung. In the Oval Test too, India had high expectations from Jadeja, but it failed this time.
