Akash Deep made a world record in batting, became the first player in this matter
Akash Deep made a shameful world record.
No one had expected the kind of performance the Indian team showed in the three-match Test series against New Zealand, in which Team India had to face almost one-sided defeat in all three matches. In the last match of this Test series played in Mumbai, the Indian team got the target of 147 runs in the fourth innings on the third day of play, in which the entire team was reduced to a score of only 121 runs and had to face defeat by 25 runs. While Team India made many shameful records in this series, fast bowler Akash Deep made a world record not with the ball but with the bat, which no player in Test cricket had managed to make before.
First player to make golden and diamond duck in the same match
Akash Deep has now become the first player in the history of Test cricket to score a golden duck and a diamond duck in the same match. In this match, during the first innings of the Indian team, when Akash Deep came on the field to bat, he was run out without playing any ball. In the second innings, he got a chance to play one ball but he was bowled on it. In this way, while he got out for a diamond duck in the first innings, he got out for a golden duck in the second innings. Let us tell you that when a batsman returns to the pavilion after getting out without playing any ball, it is called a diamond, whereas when a batsman is out on the very first ball of his innings, it is called a golden duck. In this way, Akash Deep has become the first player to achieve this feat in a single match.
Akash Deep could not show any magic in bowling
In the Test series against New Zealand, Akash Deep got a chance to play in 2 matches but he could not succeed in showing any special talent in bowling. While bowling in four innings, Akash managed to take only 2 wickets, in which his bowling average was 36.50. Akash is also a part of Team India’s upcoming Australia tour in which his form can definitely be a cause of some concern for captain Rohit Sharma.
