The Indian team made this shameful record in its name
Let us tell you that in the match, Yashasvi Jaiswal (101), Shubman Gill (147) and Rishabh Pant (134) scored centuries in the first innings for the Indian team. So in the second innings, KL Rahul scored 137 and Rishabh Pant once again played an amazing innings of 118 runs for India.
In the Leeds Test match, five players from the Indian team scored centuries, but still Team India had to face defeat. With this, Team India has now become the first team in Test matches to face defeat even after scoring five centuries in a Test match. After losing the Leeds Test match, Team India has had to take this shameful record to its name.
On the other hand, after Team India’s defeat in the match, captain Shubman Gill said – I think it was a great Test match. We had chances, we dropped catches and our lower order did not contribute enough, but proud of the team and overall it was a good effort. Yesterday we were thinking that we would score around 430 and declare the innings.
Unfortunately our last 6 wickets could only score 20-25 runs, which is never a good sign. Even today after their brilliant opening partnership, I felt that we still had a chance, but in this match we could not go according to our own.
