India skipper Shubman Gill praised Akash Deep and Mohammed Siraj for their match-winning 17-wicket haul in the absence of Jasprit Bumrah, after India crushed England by 336 runs at Edgbaston to level the five-Test series 1-1.

Shubman Gill hails Akash Deep, Siraj after India's thumping 336-run win over England at Edgbaston

India skipper Shubman Gill praised Akash Deep and Mohammed Siraj for their match-winning 17-wicket haul in the absence of Jasprit Bumrah, after India crushed England by 336 runs at Edgbaston to level the five-Test series 1-1.

India skipper Shubman Gill lauded fast bowlers Akash Deep and Mohammed Siraj for stepping up in the absence of Jasprit Bumrah, crediting their combined 17-wicket haul for making his job as captain significantly "easier".
India registered a historic 336 run in the second Test at Edgbaston in Birmingham to level the five match series 1-1.
Akash Deep delivered a match-winning performance with a 10-wicket haul, including his maiden five-for in the second innings. Siraj also contributed with seven wickets across both innings.
"When your two fast bowlers take 17 wickets, then it becomes easy for the skipper. Bumrah bhai was not there but the bowlers we have in the squad are capable of taking 20 wickets in a match," Gill told former India batting star Cheteshwar Pujara on JioHotstar after the team's win.
Having been comprehensively beaten in the opening Test, Gill credited the turnaround to improved execution with the ball and sharper fielding.
"There have been a lot of instances where we have lost the first match of the series and then we had made comebacks. So we knew how to make comebacks. If we consistently score 450 runs, our bowlers will keep us in the game... All the things we spoke about after the last game, we were spot on with all of those things. I think the way we came back with our bowling and fielding was tremendous to see," Gill said at the post-match presentation.
India's dominant win was set up by Gill himself, who scored a stunning 269 in the first innings and followed it up with 161 in the second, laying the foundation for the massive 608-run target.
"On this kind of wicket, we knew that if we got 400&ndash;500 runs, it would be enough. Not every game will be like Headingley. They (bowlers) were magnificent. The way we were able to get through their top order, they bowled brilliantly."
Gill also praised Prasidh Krishna for maintaining pressure despite not having many wickets to show for his effort. Even Prasidh, he didn't get as many wickets but he bowled brilliantly.
"He (Akash Deep) hit the right lengths and was getting the ball to move both ways, which was difficult on a pitch like this. He was magnificent for us," Gill said.
He added that sometimes captaincy can cloud a batter's instinct to take risks, but he didn't let that affect him. "I am definitely feeling comfortable with my game and if we are able to win the series with my contributions, it'll be great. As I said before, I want to play as a batsman, and go out as a batsman and make decisions as a batsman. Sometimes you won't take some risks when you're thinking as a captain which you have to do as a batsman."
He once again stated that Bumrah will be back for the third Test at Lord's.
England skipper Ben Stokes rued the missed opportunities that allowed India to wrest control of the Test. "Having them at 200 for 5, we were really happy there and not being able to burst them open there and being 80 for 5, it's tough to be able to scrape it back from there."
He admitted the conditions began to favour India as the game wore on. "You look back at the start of the game, 200/5, if we were able to get some wickets quicker, things could have been a little different. As the game got deeper and deeper, it sort of turned into a wicket, probably suited India more than us to be honest."
"Being 80/5 in reply to India's big first innings total is obviously going to be tough from there. We ran in and tried everything, we changed plans and when a team is on top of you, obviously India is a class team. It's always very hard to wrestle back when the opposition is full of world-class performers."
He lavished praise on youngsters Harry Brook and Jamie Smith, who both scored centuries in the first essay.
"Jamie has been incredible since he came into the team, he has been exceptional with the bat and he goes massively into the radar with his wicket-keeping. Just shows that his natural game and the way him and Harry were able to wrestle the momentum back towards us, I thought it was a very, very special part of the game to watch from the dressing room," Gill concluded.

Akash Deep's 10 wickets and Gill’s 430 runs power India to a historic 336-run win over England, breaking the 58-year Edgbaston jinx.

Akash Deep's 10-wicket match-haul sets up famous win for India

Akash Deep's 10 wickets and Gill&rsquo;s 430 runs power India to a historic 336-run win over England, breaking the 58-year Edgbaston jinx.

An unheralded Akash Deep, hailing from Bihar's Sasaram, owned the big stage like never before in the absence of an iconic Jasprit Bumrah as Shubman Gill's young India's broke 58-year-old 'Edgbaston Jinx' thrashing England by 336 runs to level the five-Test series 1-1.&nbsp;
The 28-year-old Akash Deep took a match-haul of 10 wickets, including his maiden five-for -- 6/99 in England second innings with the hosts getting all-out for 271 in pursuit of an improbable 608.&nbsp;
If Gill, with his magnificent batting (269 and 161) set it up, Akash deserves equal credit for his lion-hearted effort on a track which was primarily a bowler's graveyard.&nbsp;
The rain delayed the start of the day by an hour and 40 minutes, reducing the day&rsquo;s quota of overs to 80 with England resuming their second innings at 72 for three chasing a near impossible 608.&nbsp;
If Mohammed Siraj (7 wickets and catches) bowled like the leader of the attack in the first innings, Akash Deep built on his first innings gains to strike twice with new ball early on day five.&nbsp;
Once not having enough opportunities in a non-descript town in Bihar, the journey hasn't been a bed of roses for the son of a government school teacher, who would survive on pocket money earned by playing tennis ball cricket before scouts in Bengal saw his potential and fast tracked him into the age-group system seven years back.&nbsp;
He played his debut first-class game for Bengal during Christmas in 2019. In less than six years, his sharp incutters from length that fooled Joe Root, Ben Duckett, Ollie Pope and Harry Brook didn't let his skipper miss the peerless Bumrah.&nbsp;
For England, Jamie Smith (88) fought a lonely battle before being dismissed by a slow bouncer from Akash, giving the medium pacer his first five-wicket haul in Test cricket. Fittingly, Akash got the final wicket of the game to complete a match haul of 10/187.&nbsp;
The other star performer, Gill, pouched the catch at cover, leading to an animated celebration of his first success as Test captain. England also felt the pressure from Indian spinners duo of Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar, who got the ball to drift and straighten.&nbsp;
After losing the series opener at Leeds from an &lsquo;unlosable&rsquo; position, Gill-led India made an admirable comeback at the back of the captain&rsquo;s record breaking 430 runs in the match and the showing of Akash Deep and Mohammed Siraj, who both got the new ball to talk on a flat surface.&nbsp;
In Jasprit Bumrah&rsquo;s absence, not much was expected from the Indian pace attack but Siraj and Akash Deep changed the perception with match turning spells in either innings. The Edgbaston authorities had slashed the ticket prices for the final from a minimum of GBP 90 to 25.&nbsp;
For the first time in the game, the Indians outnumbered the England supporters and eventually got their money&rsquo;s worth The third Test begins at Lord&rsquo;s in four days&rsquo; time and India seem to have most bases covered with bowlers complementing the batters.&nbsp;
Bumrah will be back and Akash Deep, who attacks the stumps from good length, would be looking forward to run in down the hill from the Pavillion End at the iconic Lord&rsquo;s.&nbsp;
India were on course for a series-levelling win after Akash Deep struck twice to leave England on 153 for six at lunch. Washington Sundar had Ben Stokes leg before wicket at the stroke of lunch to matters worse for the opposition.&nbsp;
On a typical English weather day when heavy cloud cover and subsequent rain made way for bright sunshine, the start was delayed by one hour and 40 minutes. Prasidh Krishna opened the bowling alongside Akash Deep, who was the stand out bowler of the session.&nbsp;
For the first time in the high-scoring game, the wicket appeared to have deteriorated a bit with Akash getting a prodigious amount of seam movement. It was a tad surprising that Mohammed Siraj did not start alongside Akash. Having said that, Akash Deep needed seven balls to provide the breakthrough in the opening hour as Ollie Pope played one on to his stumps.&nbsp;
In the following over from Akash, the dangerous Harry Brook was trapped in front with a delivery that hit the crack and seamed back in sharply. Brook could not do much about that. It can be assumed that the medium pacer has sealed his place for the Lord&rsquo;s Test with a stellar use of the new ball at Edgbaston. Krishna from the other end could not strike but performed the holding role effectively.&nbsp;
Ravindra Jadeja was brought in after the first hour of and he got the ball to turn from the rough instantly, posing problems for Ben Stokes and Jamie Smith. Unlike Headingley, Jadeja tried to take some pace off his deliveries and it did turn off the rough. The England captain however was able to get some much needed runs.&nbsp;
He got four boundaries off Siraj including from a pull and extra cover drive off Siraj. Realising that there was little point in just defending, Stokes decided to sweep Jadeja.&nbsp;
Going into day five, either an India win or draw were probable results with England effectively conceding that there were not going to go for the mammoth target despite only drawing one game in the last three years.

Shubman Gill made history as the first Indian captain to score a double century in a Test in England, exceeding both Sunil Gavaskar's longstanding record and the previous highest by an Asian player.

Shubman Gill Scripts History With Edgbaston Double Century

Shubman Gill etched his name in history as the first Indian and Asian captain to score a double century in an England Test, surpassing Sunil Gavaskar and setting new benchmarks for Indian batsmen.

Shubman Gill made history as the first Indian and Asian captain to score a double century in an England Test, breaking India's prior record and setting new benchmarks.

Shubman Gill became the first Indian and Asian captain to score a double hundred in a Test match in England when he reached the milestone on the second day of the second match at Edgbaston on Thursday.
The skipper also posted the highest individual score by an Indian batter on English soil, surpassing Sunil Gavaskar's 221 scored at the Oval back in 1979.
The previous best was 193 by Sri Lanka's Tillakaratne Dilshan at Lord&rsquo;s in 2011.
Gill, who scored 147 on his debut as Test captain at Leeds, completed his maiden double hundred in the traditional format when he pulled Josh Tongue towards deep fine leg for a single.
He took 311 deliveries to reach his double hundred which earned him a place alongside MAK Pataudi, Sunil Gavaskar, Sachin Tendulkar and MS Dhoni as captains with double hundreds for India.
Virat Kohli holds the record with seven double centuries as skipper for India.
Before Gill, the highest score by an Indian skipper in a SENA country was 192 by Mohammed Azharuddin against New Zealand in Auckland back in 1990.
Azharuddin's 179 in Manchester in 1990 was the highest score by an Indian skipper in England.
En route his double ton, Gill smashed 21 fours and two sixes and became the third Indian batter to score a double ton in Old Blighty after legendary pair of Sunil Gavaskar and Rahul Dravid.
