Sai Sudarshan's Test Debut Cut Short by Early Dismissal
Sudarshan's Test Cricket Journey Begins
Sai Sudarshan's dream of representing India in Test cricket came true at Headingley, Leeds, during the first day of the England tour. However, his debut innings did not unfold as he had hoped. Coming in at number three after KL Rahul's exit, Sudarshan faced just three deliveries before being dismissed for a duck.
England's captain, Ben Stokes, executed a clever strategy by employing a full leg-side field that included a leg slip and leg gully. On his third delivery, Sudarshan attempted to nudge the ball down the leg side but ended up with a slight edge, leading to wicketkeeper Jamie Smith taking the catch. This disappointing start contrasts with Sudarshan's strong performances in domestic cricket, and he will be eager to make a significant comeback in his second innings.

1st ball - Huge appeal,
2nd ball - Dot,
3rd ball - Huge appeal,
4th ball - Out
3 out of 4 balls were nightmare and that is what happens when you ignores merit of Ruturaj. Still all love to Sudarshan, he will come back. #INDvsENG #TestCricket pic.twitter.com/QxrRCIG1i5
