Team India captain Shubman Gill's hilarious stump-mic moment went viral on day five of the opening Test against England at the Headingley in Leeds. With India struggling to take a wicket, Gill encouraged Mohammed Siraj and Prasidh Krishna, claiming in Hindi how they can wreck the batting line-up.
The home side came into the final day of the series opener at 21/0 in six overs, chasing a daunting 371. Although Team India's bowlers beat the bat a few times, they weren't successful in finding the edges or beating the batters' defences. England reached lunch at 117/0, needing another 254 runs.
Watch the below video as Gill said in the 21st over:
"Ek taraf se Mohammed hai, doosri taraf se krishna hai, donon tabahi macha denge." (Mohammed from one end, Krishna from other. Both can create havoc.)
England had chased down 378 against India in 2022 at Edgbaston
With the Englishmen chasing down 371 in Leeds for victory, the hosts will look to draw confidence from gunning down 378 against the same opposition at Edgbaston. After Alex Lees and Zak Crawley got England got off to an excellent start, Joe Root and Jonny Bairstow peeled off centuries, putting India to the sword.
After lunch, India will have a minimum of 66 overs to be bowled and England will start as marginal favourites.
