England captain Alastair Cook became the first man in Test history to bag his first wicket after playing more than hundred matches. In the first Test match of the series against India, as the match was heading towards a sure stalemate, India didn’t declare their innings and forced England to stay on the pitch for the full day. As the next Test of the 5 match series starts in three days time, the home side’s captain, fearing fatigue, rested his frontline bowlers and bowled his part-timers at Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Ishant Sharma.
After a while, Cook himself decided to have a bowl and in his second over, he claimed Ishant Sharma caught behind in his 105th appearance.
