Overview

• In a new clip on Gujarat Titans' official X account, Ishant Sharma recounts his maiden Test half-century at Jamaica in 2019.
• He says Virat Kohli laughed, told him "Abbey jaa na," then urged him to just stand there and play the ball as Hanuma Vihari accumulated runs.
• Walking in at 302/7, Sharma added 112 with Vihari, made 57 off 80 balls, and India reached 416 before winning by 257 runs to take the series 2-0.
• Sharma recalls promising Vihari he would not throw his wicket and describes feeling unusually exhausted and sweaty after about 60 balls.
• The reports also note his career return of 105 Tests and 311 wickets, with his most recent Test appearance coming in November 2021.
