Yashasvi Jaiswal
IND vs Eng: The 3 -match ODI series started in Nagpur between India and England. England captain Jose Butler won the toss in the first ODI and decided to bat first. Earlier, opener Yashasvi Jaiswal and all -rounder Harshit Rana were handed over ODI cap. In this way both the players got their ODI debut. The England team came out to bat first. The pair of Philip Soult and Ben Docket started in a rage. Together, both of them hit 71 runs in 8 overs. In the very next over, Philip Soult was run out after scoring 43 runs.
England had just received the first blow that the English top order was badly falter in the fourth over of Harshit Rana. Harshit Rana, who looted 26 runs in his third over, made a brilliant comeback to the 10th over and created a sensation by dismissing Ben Docket and Harry Book in the same over. During this time a very rare view was seen.
Debutant gave first wicket to debutant
Actually, debutant Harshit Rana got the first wicket of his ODI career as Ben Docket. Another debutant Yashasvi Jaiswal was instrumental in getting Harshit Rana the first wicket on his debut. Harshit Rana bowled the back of length ball close to the off stump, which the British batsman tried to bridge but could not take time properly and the ball went into the air. During this time, Jaiswal ran backwards from Square leg and diverted a brilliant catch by diving forward. This catch was really difficult because Jaiswal rammed this catch while running and running. Seeing this catch, Kapil Dev’s historical catch was remembered which he had caught in the 1983 World Cup.
The playing 11 of both teams is as follows:
England’s playing 11: Ben Docket, Philip Salt (wicketkeeper), Joe Root, Harry Brook, Jose Butler (Captain), Liam Livingston, Jacob Bethel, Bridan Cars, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid, Saqib Mahmud.
India’s playing 11: Rohit Sharma (captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shreyas Iyer, Shubman Gill, KL Rahul (wicketkeeper), Hardik Pandya, Akshar Patel, Ravindra Jadeja, Harshit Rana, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Shami.
