“Sorry what? Proud Parsi till I die. @zeenews please verify before writing trash. And please either take this down or correct it.”

The Jodhpur-born cricketer had famously scored a triple-hundred only in his third Test innings, doing so against England in 2016 in Chennai. However, he struggled in the subsequent innings against Australia and was dropped but the selectors recalled him to the side following some consistent domestic performances.
Meanwhile, India have been bowled out for 471 against England in Leeds, with Yashasvi Jaiswal (101), Shubman Gill (147) and Rishabh Pant (134) making hundreds. Stokes and Josh Tongue claimed four scalps each to help the hosts make a good comeback on day two.
