Cricket Tales - IND Vs ENG (First Test @ Chennai)
Finally,Cricket returns to India & team india taking on England.The good news is, skipper #viratkohli, speedster Ishant Sharma is back & the side is going on full strength.On the other hand, the visitors are looking equally strong as they had a real good time in Sri Lanka, especially their skipper #joeroot. Team India must have a check on their marquee players - #benstokes,#anderson,#josbuttler & #jofraarcher.
Visitors won an all important toss & opted to bat first.This is an unusual strip at Chepauk stadium. It looks a flat deck & virtually there's nothing, literally nothing for the bowlers which means, a hard toil for bowlers. Visitors post a mammoth score of 578 on board in their first innings. It was always going to be really tough for the hosts to make a comeback from here. Some sharp catching & bowling sealed the match in favour of visitors & they won the match by a huge margin of 227 runs.
This sums the story for the first test. Will history repeat itself. #
