  1. Madan Lal praises Team India for playing Shardul Thakur Former India all-rounder Madan Lal applauded India captain Virat Kohli and coach Ravi Shastri for playing Shardul Thakur in the playing XI for the Nottingham Test. According to him, India made a tactically awesome move, as Shardul Thakur is an outswing bowler, which is helpful in English conditions. Image source by twitter Thakur claimed 2 for 41 in 13 overs as India bundled England for 183 in 65.4 overs. He got the huge wicket of opposition captain Joe Root (64) as well. While speaking to Aaj Tak, Lal said that India’s bowlers have done exceptionally well. He said: “They took some time to adjust to the conditions in the opening session, as it was the first day of the series. In the second and third sessions, though, they were on top of their game. The kind of batting England have at the moment, it will be difficult for them to stand up against India. Our bowlers have the ability to bowl England out cheaply, as they showed today (Wednesday).” He continued: “I would laud Virat Kohli and Ravi Shastri for their decision to play Shardul Thakur in the Test. He is a genuine outswing bowler, who constantly moves the ball away from the batsman and troubles them. In English conditions, he is bound to get wickets. According to me, this is a masterstroke. We all saw how Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj and Shardul Thakur bowled in Australia. They were really impressive there as well.” However, Team India had a great start in the first Test against England. Apart from Shardul Thakur’s scalps, Jasprit Bumrah led the charge with a four-wicket haul and Mohammed Shami claimed three wickets also. And, after taking Root’s wicket, Thakur shared that Root’s wicket is always a big one while speaking to the media post the day’s game.
