Key Highlights
- Literally England Cricket has come forward with a trolling gesture after India loses their fifth match against England making it a 2-2 tie
- The victory for England came after the century made by Joe Root and Jonny Bairstow
England comes out victorious at the Edgbaston stadium. The victory came after the stunning performance displayed by Joe Root and Jonny Bairstow of 142* and 114* respectively.
However, at one point the two batsmen were intimidated by the skipper pacer Jasprit Bumrah on the fourth day of their show but the two strong in their mind did not waver and came back stronger than before following their game plan.
On day fifth, the England team needed 119 runs of 20 overs which the two knew how to do.
After the win was achieved by the English team, the next thing the English Cricket also knew very well to do, and that is the return gift. Yes, you heard it right!! The return gift that we are talking about here was the same gesture Virat Kohli gave on the third day of the match by getting involved with Jonny Bairstow in a heated exchange of words. England cricket was seen taking a slight but very witty dig at Virat Kohli, through twitter in which he can be seen asking Jonny to keep quiet, while in the other image, he was seen hugging Jonny.
The post till the time this article garnered 33.4 likes and retweeting it around 2108 times. From the other side, even Joe Root was also seen posting the victory expressing it as fun.
The post was also captioned with an emoji with zipped mouth, addressing nothing much to say. But we including every other cricket fan had followed the gesture a dig at the Indian boys.
The former English player Kevin Pietersen said,
“I’m ALL IN on this New England Test Team! Let’s enjoy the ride!”
Joe Root was declared the player of the series whereas the Jonny Bairstow stood as the man of the match for their fantabulous innings in the game. The victory against the visitor nation, India, has settled the scored for the English team by 2-2 which of course Indian would not be very much happy about it.
