Ranchi. Proving once again its supremacy on its soil, the Indian team proved ‘Baseball’ ineffective and won its 17th consecutive series by defeating England by five wickets on the fourth day in the fourth cricket test. Chasing the target of 192 runs to win, India started the game ahead of yesterday’s score of 40 runs without any loss. Opener Yashasvi Jaiswal (37 runs in 44 balls) and captain Rohit Sharma (55 runs in 81 balls) added 84 runs for the first wicket. After the fall of both their wickets, Rajat Patidar and Ravindra Jadeja were also out cheaply but Shubman Gill (52 not out) and Dhruv Jurel (39 not out) made a partnership of 72 runs to take the team to victory. India won the series by 3. Made a winning lead of 1 while the fifth and last match will be played in Dharamshala from March 7. The Indian team last played on its soil in 2012. In 13, they lost to the England team led by Alastair Cook. Since then, India has won 39 out of 50 Tests it has hosted.
With this victory, India also proved England’s aggressive ‘baseball’ style of play unsuccessful. This style, which has proved to be the mantra of England’s victory for the last two years, is now being criticized a lot. Since Brendon McCullum became the coach and Ben Stokes the captain, England’s strategy of aggressive play in all conditions is called ‘Baseball’. India has given a befitting reply to this.
