India vs England third Test: Anderson celebrates animatedly as Virat Kohli will get a musical send-off

2 min read

India was dismissed for 78 — its ninth-lowest complete in check cricket — as England took an early grip of the third match of the collection by tea on Day 1 at Headingley on Wednesday.
England’s makeshift seam assault, led by the enduring James Anderson (3-6), bowled an ideal size to impress a collection of ill-advised pictures by the Indians, who surprisingly selected to bat first after Virat Kohli gained the toss. They lasted solely 40.4 overs.
Kohli was one among three batsmen to fall to Anderson — all to nicks behind to wicketkeeper Jos Buttler — inside the primary 11 overs as India slumped to 21-3.
India’s batsmen imploded after lunch dropping 4 wickets with out scoring a run to plunge from 67/5 to 67/9. It was India’s third-lowest rating in opposition to England
The better part about 39-year-old Anderson’s bowling throughout that opening session was masterful use of technique.
For somebody, who primarily depends on outswing as his inventory ball, he modified his tactic and used the outgoing supply as a “shock” ball after pegging again the batters with incoming deliveries.
