Englad Beat India in First Test Match

England Beat India by 5 Wickets:

England vs India Test Match

Here is Match Summary:

After losing the first Test match at Leeds to England, the Indian team has made a shameful and undesirable record, they became the first team to lose a Test match despite scoring 5 centuries in the match.

In the Leeds Test, India scored 471 and 364 runs, while England scored 465 in the first innings and 373/5 in the second innings. England achieved the target of 371 runs for 5 wickets.

At Leeds Headingley, the Indian cricket team did what no one else has done in the 150-year history of Test cricket, but still no Indian cricketer can be proud of this feat, but perhaps they will face shame.

After losing the match by 5 wickets at England, India became the first team in the history of Test cricket that could not save the match despite scoring 5 centuries.

In the first innings, India scored 101 runs, Shubman Gill scored 147 runs and Rishabh Pant scored 134 runs.

In the second innings, Rishabh Pant scored 118 runs and KL Rahul also scored 137 runs.

But despite these five centuries, India lost the match.

Before that, the maximum number of centuries scored by any losing team in a Test was 4, and this incident also took place almost a century ago.

In 1929, i.e. 96 years ago, the Australian team failed against England in Melbourne despite scoring 4 centuries.

Apart from this, 11 times teams failed despite scoring 3 centuries in a match, but like India, no team has ever been defeated despite scoring 5 centuries.

This is a record that the Indian team will probably be disappointed to associate with its name.
