After the historic Edgbaston win, a song paying tribute to Indian cricketer Akash Deep's exemplary performance went viral on social media. A flurry of reactions flooded online as India marked record-breaking 336-run victory over England for the first time in a Test match at the venue.
The caption to the viral post states, ''Akash Deep, Akash Deep, Akash Deep, Akash Deep, bowling England out Akash Deeep' Our friend with his 🎸 also loves !'
A user wrote, 'Pain in voice,jyada deep de diya.' Another user stated, 'Should i put this as my caller tune?' A third user remarked, 'I'm sure you'll guess the original song.' A fourth comment read, '@akash.deep969 look what u did.' A fifth user replied, 'Too Deep.'
Edgbaston win is special for India as the cricket team made record-breaking 336-run victory over England for the first time in a Test match at the venue. Following India's historic win, celebrated Indian cricketer Sachin Tendulkar, ICC Chairman Jay Shah and Former India captain Virat Kohli congratulated young team India.
Edgbaston win is special as India not only marked their first-ever Test win at Birmingham's Edgbaston but also levelled up the five-match series 1-1. The achievement is noteworthy for another reason as the massive 336 score victory is the highest margin by which India has defeated any team away from home.
Following India's historic win, celebrated Indian cricketer Sachin Tendulkar, ICC Chairman Jay Shah and Former India captain Virat Kohli congratulated young team India.
Hailing, Shubham Gill, KL Rahul, Ravindra Jadeja and Rishabh Pant for their exceptional performance, Sachin Tendulkar wrote, "A 𝘚𝘩𝘶𝘣lime innings from the 𝘮𝘢𝘯 of the moment! Congratulations, @ShubmanGill, on powering India to a brilliant Test victory! @RishabhPant17,@klrahul, and @imjadeja batted very well, especially in the 2nd innings."
The 52-year old legendary cricketer added, 'India's approach was to take England out of this game and force them to play differently, making sure that there would only be 1 winner. What impressed me most about the bowlers was the length they bowled. Needless to say, Akash Deep was the standout bowler, and in my opinion, he bowled the ball of the series to Joe Root. P.S.: Enjoyed the catch taken by Mohammad 'Jonty' Siraj.'
Praising Indian cricket team, Jay Shah said, 'An outstanding Test match showcasing the depth and resilience of Indian cricket.'
Jay Shah acknowledged Akash Deep's 10-wicket haul breakthrough performance and stated, "@ShubmanGill's 269 & 161 were innings of rare quality, while Akashdeep's 10-wicket haul marked a breakthrough performance. Valuable contributions from @imjadeja and @RishabhPant17 added to a well-earned team win. Looking forward to the next contest at Lord's."
Congratulating Shubman Gill and Team India in a post on X, Virat Kohli stated, 'Great victory for India at Edgbaston. Fearless and kept pushing England to the wall. Brilliantly led by Shubhman with the bat and in the field and impactful performances from everyone. Special mention to Siraj and Akash for the way they bowled on this pitch.'
BCCI also commended the electrifying showdown at the Home of Cricket, which marks India's finest overseas Test performances.

‘Rahul Dravid no longer owns the worst declaration': Wiaan Mulder's decision to spare Brian Lara's record upsets fans

Wiaan Mulder stood on the cusp of history. When Lunch on Day 2 of the second Test between South Africa and Zimbabwe was called, the right-hander needed 34 more runs to break Brian Lara's record and become the highest individual scorer in the history of Test cricket. Looking at the rate at which the 27-year-old was scoring his runs, Mulder would have required just 5-6 overs to become the second batter in the history of the game to score 400 runs in a single Test innings. Wiaan Mulder's decision to declare South Africa's innings despite being on the cusp of breaking Brian Lara's record has not gone down too well with fans. (ICC X) However, Mulder decided to keep his team first as the Proteas stand-in captain decided to declare the innings with the team score being 626/5. The all-rounder remained unbeaten on 367 with the help of 49 fours and 4 sixes. The decision to declare is all the more alarming, considering there were still 11 sessions remaining in the contest. Also Read: Wiaan Mulder sacrifices 400; declares South Africa innings despite being on cusp of breaking Brian Lara's world record Mulder's act has not gone down too well with fans on social media. Netizens are slamming his decision to call the innings off despite him being on the cusp of history. Fans are also bringing up Rahul Dravid's call in the mix. It must be mentioned that Dravid, who was the stand-in captain for the Multan Test against Pakistan in 2004, declared the innings despite Sachin Tendulkar being unbeaten on 194. Here are some of the fan reactions: Dale Steyn and Tabraiz Shamsi criticise Mulder Even Dale Steyn and Tabraiz Shamsi found it difficult to understand Mulder's decision. Both expressed their frustration on social media. Taking to X, Steyn wrote, 'SA will win this Test with a day to spare, those few overs after lunch would never haunt them. 400 was a deserved. That said 367 is an amazing achievement. Congratulations Wessie!' On the other hand, Tabraiz Shamsi wrote, 'No man no no no... why the declaration. So much time left in the game. Could have told him he's got 5 overs to go out there and smash it to try and get to 400.' Wiaan Mulder now holds the record for the highest individual score by a South African batter, surpassing Hashim Amla's 311-run knock against England in 2012. He also holds the record for the highest score by a batter in an away Test. He also slammed the second-fastest triple-century. He brought up the feat of just 297 balls. Earlier, Zimbabwe had won the toss and opted to bowl first. South Africa had won the opening Test of the series. Mulder had scored a century in the second innings of the series opener as well.
