Wonder how many No 7 Indian batsmen have had an impact in each one of their first three innings in Test cricket the way Washington Sundar has so far. 2 fifties and a match-winning 22 that included a hooked six off the world’s best fast bowler #INDvENG

Washington Sundar has been proven a fantastic lower middle order batsman for India. 2nd fifty in just his 3rd Innings that too against good bowling attack, great start to his career.

India all out. Ripper catch by Ben Stokes to take Bumrah. And on a light note, a damn good innings by Washington Sundar. So calm and relaxed. Playing some ripper drives. Exciting to watch. Another young gun in the India side. ????????? #INDvENG
