“India WIN” – Probably that’s how short the 3rd Test Match (Day-Night) Lasted

England won the toss on Day 1 at the Sardar Patel Stadium also now known as the Narender Modi Stadium in Gujrat and elected to Bat first. Over a spin friendly track, the visitors opted to Bat and lasted for 48.4 overs in which they managed 112 Runs.

The spin duo from last match did the magic this time around as well. Axar Patel and Ravi Ashwin managed to run through the England batting order and picked up 9 wickets. Axar Patel picked up 6 wickets for 38 Runs, his personal best with England Team.

Joe Root Picks up 5 Wickets

Who would have imagined, India on a spin friendly track will be bowled out for 145 Runs. Joe Root, the England captain picked up 5 wickets for just 8 Runs in 6.2 overs, a magical spell he won’t forget.  Rohit Sharma was the star performer scoring 66 Runs and showing some momentum. This is just the second day we are talking…

England Bat again, Bowled Out for 81 Runs

A first ball wicket by Axar Patel started the England innings and then it was the same story of pins falling one-by-one. Only 3 England batsmen managed to get in double figures. Again, the star of this innings, Axar patel, picking up 5 wickets with Ashwin taking 4 wickets and 1 wicket with Sundar. England set  India an easy target of 49 Runs to win the third test match.

India finishes it off in under 8 overs

Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill came out all guns blazing and scored the 49 Runs in just 7.4 overs to take India home to a fantastic WIN. India now lead the 4 test match series, 2-1.
