  1. Ajinkya Rahane Feels Situations Can Change Anytime In England The inaugural World Test Championship (WTC) final in Southampton has seen various things in these five days so far where two days were abandoned due to rain and the match was halted in between due to bad light as well. But the Indian vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane has said that the situation can be changed any time in England. Rahane, who was the highest run-getter for India with 49 runs in India’s 1st innings, referred to cricket as “a funny game” as well. Before the start of the game on Day 5, Ajinkya Rahane said, “We have seen funny things can happen in Test cricket. Still six sessions left, we have to give our best. We are bowling now and I think first session will be crucial for us. If we can pick up two crucial wickets. Being in the present, playing session by session, you know in England if you go too far ahead of the game sometimes funny things happen and so it’s all about staying in the moment and backing yourselves.”

They have seam bowlers and we have swing bowlers but I think our bowling attack has done really well in all the conditions. I think we have to stick to our strength —looking fr swing, it’s all about finding that right length in England and having patience. Things can change in 7-8 overs in England. It’s all about bowling those maiden over, bowling those dot balls, creating that pressure as a bowling and fielding unit.” However, Indian bowlers did well on Day 5 and managed to get rid of their opponents within 249 runs on the board. Mohammed Shami claimed a four-wicket haul whereas Ishant Sharma picked up 3 as well. In their second innings, India lost both their openers – Rohit Sharma (30) and Shubman Gill (8) and put up 64 runs before the stumps as well.
