Ind vs eng 1st test: The Indian team has taken a slight lead of 6 runs over England in the first innings. Team India scored 471 runs in the first innings, on the other hand the English team’s first innings ended for 465 runs. Apart from Oli Pope and Harry Brook, no England batsman could play a big innings, despite how the British team scored 465 runs. After all, what mistakes were made from Team India, due to which it could take a lead of just 6 runs in the first innings.
1. Harry Brook, Bumrah threw no balls on zero
The England team had once scored 206 runs at the loss of 3 wickets in 48 overs. Harry Brook had come to the crease, when Mohammad Siraj caught a brilliant catch of Harry Brook off Jasprit Bumrah in the 49th over. Brook would be dismissed at a score of zero, but then the umpire indicated a no-ball. As a result of the release of this catch, Brook scored 99 runs.
2. Team India left 6 catches, Brook-Pope got 2-2 life
The poor fielding of the Indian team also became a big reason, due to which the England team could score 465 runs. Harry Brook survived the score of zero, while another catch of Brook was missed in this innings. Oli Pope, who played 106 runs, also got 2 lives. One of these catch was initially left by Yashasvi Jaiswal, on which Bumrah was very disappointed. At the same time, Indian fielders also left a catch of Jamie Smith and Ben Docket.
3. Shardul Thakur did not show confidence
Shardul Thakur is usually known for bowling well with a new and semi-new ball. In the first Test against England, a spell must have been done in 20 overs before him. But the first over from Thakur was done in the 40th over of the innings, by then the ball was old. Captain Gill did not use Shardul Thakur’s ability. Only 6 overs were given to him.
