Ravindra Jadeja Achieves Huge Milestone, Only Four Other Indians Have Done It

During the first ODI against England at the Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium on Thursday, Indian left-arm spinner Ravindra Jadeja completed 600 international wickets across all formats. Jadeja snapped three wickets in his spell of nine overs where he conceded just 26 runs and bowled one maiden overs. The 36-year-old took the wickets of Joe Root, Jacob Bethell, and Adil Rashid in his spell. With these three wickets, the Saurashtra-born player completed the 600-wicket mark and became the fifth player to do so. The other players to achieve the same landmark were leg-spinner Anil Kumble, off-spinners Ravichandran Ashwin and Harbhajan Singh, and all-rounder Kapil Dev.

Vice-captain Shubman Gill orchestrated India's chase with grace, while debutant Harshit Rana dazzled with the ball as the hosts registered a four-wicket win against England in the series opener in Nagpur on Thursday.

Watch: Gautam Gambhir Can't Keep Calm As Harshit Rana Shines On T20I Debut

It was a memorable and unexpected T20I debut for Harshit Rana on Friday. The 23-year-old right-arm pacer was not part of India's playing XI during the fourth game against England in Pune, but an injury to Shivam Dube saw him being included. Dube suffered a blow on his helmet through a Jamie Overton delivery on the penultimate ball of India's innings. He was then replaced with Harshit as concussion substitute after the innings break. The change in squad worked in India's favour as Harshit returned figures of 3 for 33 in his quota of four overs. He picked the wickets of Liam Livingstone, Jacob Bethell and Jamie Overton.

1 Over, 3 Wickets, 0 Runs: Saqib Mahmood Forces India To Suffer Historic Low In 4th T20I

Saqib Mahmood - that is one name which the Indian T20I cricket team is going to remember for a long time. The England pacer sent shockwaves in India camp with a terrific over that saw three stars Sanju Samson (1), Tilak Varma (0) and Suryakumar Yadav (0) fall in a space of six balls. In doing so, Mahmood became the first England player to bowl a triple-wicket maiden. He is also the first bowler in the world to achieve the feat against India in T20Is. Mahmood took the three wickets in the second over - the joint-earliest to take a triple wicket maiden in T20Is along with Jerome Taylor (vs SA in Gqeberha, 2007).
