'Fielding Let Us Down': Kiran More On India’s Missed Chances In Headingley Test Defeat
Kiran More: Former India wicketkeeper and selector Kiran More has called for patience with the current Indian Test side after its heartbreaking five-wicket loss to England in the first Test at Headingley, but was clear-eyed about where things went wrong: fielding.
“We played very well for four days,” More told IANS. “I think the mistake came on the last day when England played outstanding cricket. Fielding was where we slipped. Those were simple catches — no one drops those — and that made the difference.”
His assessment came after England pulled off one of the most sensational fourth-innings chases in Test history, hunting down a mammoth 371-run target on the final day to take a 1-0 lead in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy. The win, powered by Ben Duckett’s sublime 149 and anchored by Joe Root’s unbeaten 53 and debutant Jamie Smith’s nerveless 44 not out, was England’s second-highest successful chase ever and the highest against India.
