IND vs AFG: The only test match between India and Afghanistan is being played from June 6. The second day’s play ended on June 7. On the second day, India declared the innings after scoring 564/8 runs. In this match, Manav Suthar got the debut cap from India. He repeated the 25 year old record by doing a great feat in the very first match. Suthar has become the eighth Indian player to achieve a big feat by taking a wicket in the first over.

Suthar repeated history after 25 years

In fact, a bowler from India had taken a wicket in the first over of his debut Test match 25 years ago. This feat was done by Tinu Yohannan on behalf of India, who took a wicket on the fourth ball of his first over against England in the year 2001. Now after 25 years, Manav Suthar took a wicket on the fourth ball of the first over in his debut test match for India against Afghanistan. This feat was first accomplished for India by Montu Banerjee against West Indies in the year 1958. He took the first wicket on the 5th ball.

Suthar’s brilliant bowling

On the second day of the game, Suthar also contributed in batting. He played an inning of 28 runs in 41 balls, which included 2 fours and 2 sixes. After this he did wonders in bowling. He made 3 batsmen his victims by spending 21 runs in 15.5 overs. Suthar made Abdul Malik, Rehmanullah Gurbaz and Officer Jazai his victims.
