We often hear that the main strength of Indian cricket team is its batting. Yes, it is true but sometimes exceptions happen and Zaheer Khan could make this exception in the second test against England. He bowled superbly both in the first innings and in the second innings. In the second innings, English batsmen offered a stiff resistance but could not get the upperhand over Zaheer Khan.

Zaheer Khan was the man who mattered at Trent Bridge.

Nine for Zaheer have set up the game for India — only Chetan Sharma has taken 10 wickets in a game for India in England. Twenty-one years after Sharma’s feat, India have the upper hand in a Test series in England for the first time. They are 63 runs away from taking the lead in this three-Test series.

Anil Kumble’s belated resurgence, three wickets off the tail, denied Zaheer a tenner, which would have been a perfect award for work done very well.

If India wins then Zaheer Khan will surely become the man of the match for his bowling. I just wish that Zaheer Khan can continue his good form in the third test too. He is becoming a matured bowler and this is good for team India.
