35.5Yadav to M SafiW
Wicket. OUT! Caught. Kuldeep Yadav to Saleem Safi. Left-Arm Leg Spin half volley, down leg side on the front foot Slog, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to short extra cover, caught by Sudharsan. A crushing victory for India, defeating Afghanistan by an innings and 300 runs in this one-off Test. After piling up 564/8 declared, India once again dismantled the Afghan batting, bowling them out for just 112 in the second innings. The lone resistance came from Sediqullah Atal, who battled for 42 off 80 balls, but wickets fell regularly around him. Washington Sundar was the standout bowler claiming four wickets, while Kuldeep Yadav also chipped in with three. Afghanistan's batting frailties were exposed once more, with no partnerships of note. This result will be remembered as a debut to cherish for Manav Suthar and a statement of India's depth and strength in Test cricket. Manav Suthar is the Player of the Match.
