Not Pant Walking In With Broken Foot! Yuvraj Picks Best Moment Of IND-ENG Series
Last Updated: Yuvraj Singh has lauded Jadeja and Sundar for their vital hundreds that helped India draw the fourth Test against England. Former India cricketer Yuvraj Singh has said that the moment of the tournament from the five-Test series against England was when the visitors drew the series at Old Trafford in Manchester, lauding Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar's efforts to draw the fourth Test. Coming into the game with a 1-2 deficit, India looked to lose it as well, before Jadeja and Sundar came together to score individual hundreds and ensure that India didn't lose any wickets for two sessions. The five-match series eventually ended in a 2-2 draw after India eked out a narrow six-run win in the final Test at the Oval. 'The moment in the tournament was when India drew the Test series. I've never seen, in a very long time, Washington and Jadeja got hundreds and drew a Test," Yuvraj said while speaking to ICC Digital on the sidelines of the '50 Days To Go' Women's Cricket World Cup event. 'That speaks volumes. Jadeja has been there for a long time. But I think Washington Sundar, as a youngster coming into the team, I think it was incredible to do what he did," Yuvraj said. 'I think it's just fantastic because I felt when you have a young team going to England, it's a lot of pressure," Yuvraj added. The drawn series saw India's Test skipper Shubman Gill & Co. share the inaugural Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy. Yuvraj lauded Gill for silencing doubts about his overseas batting, guiding the side with exemplary captaincy. 'There were a lot of question marks over his overseas record. The guy became the captain and scored four Test hundreds. It's just unbelievable that when you're given responsibility, how you take it," Yuvraj said. 'So, very proud of them. I certainly feel it's a win for us, although it's a drawn series, because it's a young team. And it's not easy to go and play well in England and prove yourself," Yuvraj added.
