No one expected the kind of performance India showed in the three Test matches against New Zealand, with the team facing almost one-sided defeat in all three matches. In the last match of this Test series in Mumbai, the Indian team scored a target of 147 runs in the fourth innings on the third day of the match. The team’s score was reduced to only 121 runs and had to face a defeat of 25 runs. Defeated. While the Indian team has set many shameful records in this series, fast bowler Akash Deep set a world record not with the ball but with the bat in a previous Test cricket match Which no player can create.
The first player to make a Golden Duck and a Diamond Duck in the same game
Akash Deep has now become the first player in the history of Test cricket to win a Golden Duck and a Diamond Duck in the same match. In India’s first innings of this match, Akash Deep came in to bat but was dismissed without any batting. In the second inning, he had a chance to bat, but he was hit. In this way, while he eliminated the diamond duck in the first inning, he eliminated the golden duck in the second inning. Let us tell you that when a batsman returns to the pavilion without bowling any ball, it is called diamond and when a batsman is out on the first ball of his innings, it is called Golden duck. With this, Akash Deep became the first player to achieve this feat in a single game.
Akash Deep fails to show any magic in bowling
Akash Deep got a chance to feature in two matches during the Test match against New Zealand, but he failed to show any special talent in bowling. In four innings of bowling, Akash took only 2 wickets and his bowling average was 36.50. Akash is also part of the Indian team for the upcoming tour of Australia and his form will surely cause some concern for captain Rohit Sharma.
