The first Test of the four-Test series between India and England was played at the M Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. By the end of the second day’s play, England had lost 55 wickets and scored 555 runs. Team captain Joe Root batted spectacularly and scored the 5th double century of his career. Root became the first batsman in the world to score a double century while playing his 100th Test match. Not only Root but Ben Stokes also scored 82. Meanwhile, former India opener Virender Sehwag has been trolling Rishabh Pant and Rohit Sharma over Jack Leach.
At the end of the second day, Jack Leach and Dominic Bess returned to the England side. In fact, Jack Leach fell to the ground after Joffra Archer was dismissed in the first delivery. Virender Sehwag shared a photo on his Instagram, in which Rohit Sharma and Rishabh Pant are looking at Leach Crease while watching him, and this time Rohit’s face is also smiling lightly. Sehwag, who shared the picture, wrote, “Watching Leech as the parade is coming out of the street.” Rohit Sharma bowled on the second day of the Test and he was copying the bowling action of Harbhajan Singh.
