Harbhajan Singh didn’t hold back after India’s thrilling six-run win over England in the 5th Test at The Oval. The former off-spinner praised Shubman Gill’s young team for their bravery and criticized Michael Vaughan for underestimating them before the series began.
The victory helped India draw the five-match series 2-2. It also marked a statement win for a squad lacking senior stars, yet filled with resolve and talent.
“Michael Vaughan Should Look at His Own Team First”
“I feel there is a big win hidden for India here. Yes, the scoreline shows 2-2. Michael Vaughan and many others predicted that it would be 3-1 or 3-0. I would tell them to look towards their side a bit and where England cricket stands. Our warriors have shown the level of Indian cricket,” Harbhajan said on his YouTube channel.
He went on to commend India’s performance throughout the tour.”Unbelievable Test match and the way India have played the series, they deserve praise. When the team went to England, many people said it was young and there were no seniors. But see how the young team created history,” he added.
Siraj and Krishna Lead Dramatic Turnaround at The Oval
India had to defend just 35 runs with four English wickets still in hand. England looked close to victory after two early boundaries. But Mohammed Siraj and Prasidh Krishna maintained composure, struck at regular intervals, and secured a historic win.
Siraj’s final blow came via a fiery yorker that bowled Gus Atkinson, sealing the match. The result not only proved critics wrong but also established Shubman Gill as a calm, capable Test leader in his debut series.
