India’s Top 3 performers from the 1st Test against England at Leeds 

The England cricket team defeated India in the first Test of the five-match series at Headingley, Leeds. This closely fought game took place in the final session of the fifth and last day of the tournament. The hosts emerged victorious, chasing down the second-highest run chase on their home turf with five wickets to spare. This was a terrific story for England. No matter how big the target was on the board, Ben Stokes and his men played without fear and took the game right to India and eventually beyond them to take a 1-0 lead in the five-match Test series.

With this loss, Team India becomes the first team in the 148 years of cricket to have five hundred but still lose the Test series. Despite the loss, Team India’s players made their mark on English soil. Speaking about the same subject, given below are the top three performances from the first Test match against England.

1. Rishabh Pant’s century in both innings

The Indian team’s vice-captain has been receiving huge praise for his stellar hundreds in both innings of the Test match. The left-handed batter made 134 and 118 runs in the first and second innings of the first Test match. The star batter was seen struggling in the IPL, but his comeback in this format has once again made audacious headlines.

2. Jasprit Bumrah’s five-wicket haul

The right-arm pacer has once again showcased his beast form when he picked up five wickets in the first innings of the Test match. The star bowler has been one of the best bowlers from the Team India camp and posed a big challenge to the England batting unit. However, he was wicketless in the second innings and failed to put pressure on the host batters.

3. KL Rahul’s composed batting under pressure

The stylish right-handed batter has successfully filled the void of former skipper Rohit Sharma. The fans never felt Rohit’s absence thanks to the star batters’ form. KL Rahul has made 42 and 137 in the first and second innings of the game.
