New Delhi: The five-match Test series played in England ended in a 2-2 draw. This series was not only a true test of cricketing skills but also of the passion and patience of the Indian players. Every match went on till the last moment and Team India proved its strength even in difficult situations. New captain Shubman Gill and young team This series was the first challenge for new captain Shubman Gill. In the absence of veterans like Virat Kohli Rohit Sharma and Ravichandran Ashwin the team was relatively young and inexperienced especially in English conditions. Despite this the players performed brilliantly on their respective occasions and strengthened the team. Washington Sundars revelation – dressing room atmosphere All-rounder Washington Sundar said in an interview that the youth of the entire team created a wonderful atmosphere in the dressing room. He said “The dressing room and atmosphere of the entire team were great we were all young and that was the most exciting thing.” This positivity kept motivating the players to win at the Oval on the last day. Great comeback after tough defeats Even after the tough defeats at Edgbaston and Lords Team India made a great comeback under Gills captaincy. It was not easy to level the series by registering two brilliant wins. Sundar said that many players came forward on different occasions and showed the team the way to victory. Step towards a new era Overall this young Indian team under the captaincy of Shubman Gill can call its first overseas tour a success. The relationships and mutual coordination built in this series can become the key to both the teams consistency and victory in the times to come. This is the beginning of a new era where a new identity is expected to be created in red-ball cricket.
