Few former cricketers including Kevin Pietersen and Yuvraj Singh feel that pitches like the one in Ahmedabad aren't good for Test cricket

As the Pink-ball Test in Ahmedabad&nbsp;was over within 2 days, many former cricketers criticised the pitch of not being suitable for Test cricket. While former England cricketer Kevin Pietersen&nbsp;tweeted to say that such challenging pitches are fine for one Test but he and the batsmen don't want such pitches anymore. Former India cricketer Yuvraj Singh&nbsp;too wasn't very happy with the pitch and questioned if it was good for Test cricket or not. He even went to write that had Anil&nbsp;Kumble and Harbhajan Singh bowled on these kind of wickets they might have bagged a thousand and 800 wickets respectively.&nbsp;

India finished the game in 842 deliveries, their quickest victory in Test cricket in terms of balls bowled.

It took India less than 2 days to wrap up a clinical win as the hosts crushed England by 10 wickets in Ahmedabad to take an unassailable 2-1 lead in the 4-match Test series. India finished the game in 842 deliveries, their quickest victory in Test cricket in terms of balls bowled. Earlier,&nbsp;the hosts were all out for 145 in the 1st innings as Joe Root claimed his maiden 5-wicket haul in 1st class cricket. India though secured a crucial 33-run lead. England's 2nd innings ended even before it took off as the visitors were bowled out for mere 81. The 49-run target proved to be a cakewalk for Shubman Gill and Rohit Sharma as the openers took India over the finish line without any hiccup.&nbsp;

Axar Patel bamboozled England with figures of 5/32 and claimed his 3rd consecutive 5-wicket haul in just 2 Tests.

Yet another innings and once again Axar Patel made England dance to the tune of his bowling. The local lad bamboozled the visitors with figures of 5/32 and claimed his 3rd consecutive 5-wicket haul. He didn't let the absence of Ravindra Jadeja hurt India one bit and filled his shoes perfectly. Axar didn't just prove to be an ally for Ashwin but went a step further and proved even more threatening. With figures of 11/70 in the Ahmedabad Test, Axar&nbsp;now holds the record of best bowling figures in a pink ball Test.&nbsp;He might have played just 2 Tests, but with 18 wickets already, Axar Patel has become a headache for England.

Ashwin became the fastest overall and 2nd fastest Indian to pick 400 Test wickets in terms of matches

Ravichandran Ashwin isn't just a bowler in the subcontinental conditions, he is a phenomenon. England is getting a first-hand experience of that in the Test series, as the off-spinner once again ran through their batting order in Ahmedabad. During the process, Ashwin became the fastest overall and 2nd fastest Indian&nbsp;to pick 400 Test wickets in terms of matches. While&nbsp;Muralitharan achieved the feat in 72 Tests, Ashwin took just 5 games more. What makes this milestone grander is the fact that only 3 other Indians in the history of Test cricket have claimed over 400 wickets in the longest format.&nbsp;

India lost last 7 wickets for just 31 runs and went from 99/3 to being all out for 145 in the 1st innings.

Day 2 of the 3rd Test started off on a dramatic note as England gave India a taste of their own medicine in Ahmedabad. England&nbsp;spinners asked questions on a bowling friendly track, to which Indian batsmen had no answers. The hosts lost last 7 wickets for just 31 runs and went from 99/3 to being all out for 145 in the 1st innings. Joe Root claimed his maiden 5-wicket haul in 1st class cricket which proved to be the cheapest 5-fer in Tests.&nbsp;A little fightback from Ashwin and Ishant towards the end though helped India secure a crucial 33-run lead.&nbsp;

Prithvi Shaw who was dropped from Team India owing to a poor run with the bat has slammed a record-breaking double century for Mumbai in the Vijay Hazare

Prithvi&nbsp;Shaw who was dropped from Team India owing to a poor run with the bat has slammed a record-breaking double century for Mumbai in the Vijay&nbsp;Hazare&nbsp;Trophy vs Puducherry. Shaw slammed 227* off 152 deliveries which is the highest individual score in the&nbsp;Vijay&nbsp;Hazare&nbsp;trophy. Mumbai's total of 457/4 is also the highest team total in the competition's history. Shaw smashed 31 fours and 5 sixes as he decimated Puducherry's&nbsp;bowlers. Along with Shaw, Suryakumar&nbsp;Yadav who has got his maiden Team India call-up smashed 133 off 58 balls.&nbsp; A total of 62 fours and 11 sixes were hit in the match in Jaipur&nbsp;which makes it 314 scored off just boundaries.&nbsp;

English cricketers after Day 1 of the Ahmedabad&nbsp;Test have asked for consistency by the umpires. The two local umpires in the form of Nitin&nbsp;Menon&nbsp;&amp; Anil&nbsp;Chaudhary&nbsp;&amp; the TV umpire Chettithody Shamshuddin are under fire after the visiting side showed displeasure over some decisions. A spokesperson of the English cricket management said that both decisions involving Shubman&nbsp;Gill's dubious catch by Ben Stokes and Rohit&nbsp;Sharma's stumping were checked from only 1 camera angle and the decision was given instantly. While there is no questioning of the decision, the English party wants the umpires to check multiple angles before arriving at a&nbsp;conclusion.&nbsp;

Lionel Messi&nbsp;once again carried Barcelona to a comfortable 3-0 win over Elche in La Liga on Wednesday night. His&nbsp;brace was cushioned by a late strike from Jordi&nbsp;Alba as Elche&nbsp;failed to brach the Catalan defense in the game. The 3-0 win helps Barcelona climb to the 3rd spot in the points table with 50 points. They are 2 points behind Real Madrid and 5 behind Atletico&nbsp;Madrid who have played a game less.&nbsp;

Twin strikes from&nbsp;Bernardo Silva&nbsp;in the first half followed by&nbsp;Gabriel Jesus in the 2nd were enough for Manchester City as they dominated their game against&nbsp;Borussia Monchengladbach&nbsp;in the 1st leg of the round of 16 tie in the Champions League. City had complete control over the game and didn't allow the German side to score. Along with defending Champions Bayern&nbsp;Munich, City is touted as the favourites to win the Champions League. The return leg of the tie will be played on 16th March when&nbsp;Borussia Monchengladbach&nbsp;travel to Manchester.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;

Real Madrid were almost embarrassed on Wednesday night in their 1st leg of the round of 16 tie in the Champions League against Atalanta. After being reduced to 10-men, the Italian side fought hard and prevented the Spanish giants from scoring. It looked like the 13-time winners&nbsp;would be forced into a draw but a late winner from&nbsp;Ferland Mendy&nbsp;sealed the night for Zinedine&nbsp;Zidane's&nbsp;men. This was also Mendy's&nbsp;first goal in the Champions League as Real Madrid scored a crucial away goal in their 1-0 win.&nbsp;

It may have been just the opening day of the all-crucial pink ball Test, but the match is pacing really quickly. England's decision to bat first backfired as the visitors were bowled out for just 112 in the 1st innings. Axar&nbsp;Patel and Ravichandran&nbsp;Ashwin&nbsp;ran through them with 6 and 4 wickets respectively. Indian openers had a watchful start before Shubman&nbsp;Gill and Cheteshwar Pujara&nbsp;fell within a span of 1 run as the hosts were reduced to 34/2. Rohit&nbsp;Sharma carried on and scored a swift half century and is unbeaten on 57. He though lost Virat&nbsp;Kohli&nbsp;towards the end of the day as he fell for 27. Though India ended day 1 at 99/3, they trail England by just 13 runs.

Axar claimed his 2nd 5-wicket haul in as many Tests to become only the 3rd India to achieve that feat in both of their first two Test matches.

Axar Patel might be playing just his 2nd Test, but he has already become a headache for England. The spinner picked up his 2nd 5-wicket haul in as many Tests to become only the 3rd India to achieve that feat&nbsp;in both of their first two Test matches.&nbsp;Axar bamboozled England with figures of 6/38 as the visitors were bowled out for a paltry 112 in the 1st innings, their 2nd lowest total in India. Interestingly, 2 of their 3 lowest ever Test scores in India have been in this series.

While most parts were named after Reliance, the 3 premium stands and one of the pavilion ends were named after Adani.

Apart from the Sports Enclave and Stadium, a sports complex will also be built and the 3 will be equipped to host any international sports event.

At the&nbsp;inauguration of the&nbsp;Narendra Modi Stadium,&nbsp;Home Minister Amit Shah brought up the possibility of India hosting the Olympics. He said that combining the sports complex, enclave and stadium in Ahmedabad, India will be ready to host even the Olympics in just six months. Such has been the size of infrastructure they have created. Shah also said that&nbsp;Ahmedabad will now be known as the Sport City of India. The stadium has 76 corporate boxes, Olympic level swimming pool, indoor academy, four dressing rooms for athletes, food courts and GCA club house.&nbsp;

India Vs England 3rd Test, Motera Stadium: 6 of the last 8 men's Tests in India have been won by the toss-winning side

The pink ball Test in Ahmedabad didn't start off as per India's liking as Virat Kohli lost the toss and England opted to bat first.
Interestingly, Kohli has&nbsp;won just 2 of the last 13 tosses against England. Moreover,&nbsp;6 of the last 8 men's Tests in India have been won by the toss-winning side.&nbsp;
The reason why India was looking for the coin to come down in their favour was the fact that Virat has never lost a Test after winning the toss.&nbsp;

Tiger Woods has undergone successful surgery to fix his broken leg after the crash in Los&nbsp;Angeles&nbsp;on Tuesday. Woods was rescued&nbsp;from the wreckage of his car by first responders and was rushed to a hospital. In a statement from his team, Woods is now responding to treatment and is conscious. The medical update also confirmed that Woods suffered multiple fractures in his leg and a rod was inserted during the surgery. A number of screws were also put in place to hold his ankle together. The team provided all the necessary medical updates as the surgery and subsequent rehabilitation is likely to keep Tiger out of a golf course for a long time.&nbsp;

The 200 run mountain in cricket was mostly considered impossible till Sachin&nbsp;Tendulkar&nbsp;conquered that peak 11 years ago in Gwalior. Sachin&nbsp;became the first to score 200 runs in ODIs&nbsp;as India thrashed South Africa by 158 runs. In his innings of 200 not out, the master blaster faced 147 deliveries with 25 hits to the fence and 3 over the ropes. Since then, 5 individuals have crossed the 200 run mark with Rohit&nbsp;Sharma leading the pack with a score of 264. While the highest score might be with Rohit, cricket fans will never forget the 200-run knock of Tendulkar&nbsp;which made fans and cricketers believe that 200 was not an impossible individual target to get.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
