"I'm privileged to work with a lovely team. I'm learning from them all the time. Rohit has been fantastic to work with. I think he's a terrific leader, and the guys gravitate towards him phenomenally, which is fantastic to see," said Dravid told broadcasters after the match.

"Never Take Anything For Granted": Sunil Gavaskar Lashes Out At India Star Over "Disappointing" Dismissal

Former India captain Sunil Gavaskar was disappointed with Dhruv Jurel after the young wicketkeeper-batter threw his wicket in the first innings of the fifth Test against England in Dharamsala. Jurel, who won the player of the match award in the last game, walked in to bat at No. 7 after India lost the wicket of debutant batter Devdutt Padikkal.

Shubman Gill Breaks Silence On Batting At No. 3 Amid Inconsistent Performances

Indian cricket team batter Shubman Gill said that he did not think about going back to opening the batting when he was going through a rough patch in his career. Gill, who slammed a brilliant century on Day 2 of the fifth Test match against England in Dharamsala on Friday, struggled to score runs before the ongoing series. With Yashasvi Jaiswal opening the innings with Rohit Sharma, Gill was given the No. 3 position and it took him some time to get accustomed to it.
