Currently, a five-match Test series is going on between India and England. The first match of the series was played at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad. Here, the Indian team, under the leadership of Ben Stokes, gave an amazing performance in batting and then bowling and defeated the hosts by 28 runs.
On the other hand, after the defeat of the Indian team in the Hyderabad Test match, former England spin bowler Monty Panesar has given a big statement regarding captain Rohit Sharma. Monty has said that Rohit has also proved to be a failure in strategy with the bat.
Monty Panesar gave a big statement
Let us tell you that Monty Panesar told Metro.co.uk regarding the captaincy of Rohit Sharma. Quoting: England has achieved a huge victory in Hyderabad. No one had imagined that this victory would be possible.
After falling behind by 190 runs in the first innings, everyone thought that England would lose. But after this Ollie Pope batted brilliantly which was one of the best innings played by him. We have seen such an innings after a long time.
Monty further said- Rohit Sharma was completely unknown in the match. He was really a completely unknown captain, whether it was changing the field or changing the bowling. We haven’t seen anything like this. Ollie Pope was playing the scoop, all you had to do was slip the bowling of Ravindra Jadeja. But it was nothing like that.
Well, after this victory, the England cricket team has taken a 1-0 lead in the five-match Test series. So now the second test match between the two teams will be played in Visakhapatnam from 2nd February. It will be worth watching how the Indian team makes a comeback in this match?
