Team India have started their fourth Test against England at the JSCA International Stadium Complex in Ranchi on Friday 23. England won the toss and opted to bat first. For India, pace bowler Akash Deep made her debut and left a mark already.

Akash Deep started well with the ball

He bowled a lovely delivery to dismiss Zak Crawley in the 4th over of the game. It nipped back from a length around off and went past Crawley’s inside edge, sending the off-stump cart-wheeling. As soon as everyone started celebrating, the siren indicated that it was a front-foot no-ball. Thus, the speedster failed to claim his maiden wicket early.

India will try to win the Test

However, at the toss, Rohit Sharma said, “We would have batted first as well. Looks a bit dry and has some cracks, but that’s the nature of the pitch here. The last two games were good for us and we’ll have to play in the same way. Proud of a lot of young guys in the squad, they’ve taken the responsibility and have taken the challenge head-on. They are confident in their skills, moving forward it’s a good thing. One change with Akash Deep making his debut.”
