This is Team India’s biggest win, but what is England’s biggest defeat?
India vs England Test Series : The Indian team defeated England by 434 runs in the third test played in Rajkot. This is India’s biggest Test win in terms of runs. Not only this, if we talk about the biggest victory in the history of Test cricket, then this victory has come in the top 10. Here we are talking about winning by runs only. But the question is, along with India’s biggest win, is this also England’s biggest defeat by runs? The answer is no.
England suffered its second biggest defeat by runs in Tests.
If we talk about England’s biggest defeat in terms of runs, it came in the year 1934. When Australia defeated England by 562 runs in the match played at The Oval. After this, the defeat by 434 runs is the second biggest defeat by runs in Test cricket. In this sense, India has broken the record of defeat by England at the hands of West Indies, which it had suffered in Manchester in 1976. Then West Indies defeated England by 425 runs. Australia had defeated England by 409 runs at Lord’s in 1948.
England won the first test by 28 runs
When the Test series between India and England started, in the very first match the British performed amazingly and defeated the Indian team by 28 runs. Then it was believed that this series would not be so easy for Team India. The cricket experts who were already predicting the Indian team to win 5-0, changed their predictions. Especially at the time when Virat Kohli had withdrawn his name. KL Rahul and Ravindra Jadeja were injured. The Indian team was competing against England on the strength of young players. But these young players defeated the British.
Young players of Team India impressed
Especially Sarfaraz Khan, playing his debut series, who scored half-centuries in both the innings of the first match. On the other hand, Rajat Patidar, Dhruv Jurail also impressed and Yashasvi Jaiswal had already proved himself. At this time, except Rohit Sharma, Ravi Chandran Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja and Jasprit Bumrah, the rest of the team looks like a newcomer. At the same time, England has come on India tour with young and experienced players. The Indian team won the second and third matches in a one-sided manner. Now it will be interesting to see that in the fourth match, these two teams will face each other again in Ranchi to see which team prevails.
