ICC should give the trophy to the team that has been in the top position for 2 consecutive years: Former Indian cricketer



New Delhi (Urdu Point latest newspaper. June 8, 2023) Former Indian Test cricketer and commentator Akash Chopra targeted the International Cricket Council (ICC) due to India's poor performance in the Test Championship final. The final of the ICC Test Championship between Australia and India is being played in England's historic Oval Ground. On the first day, the Kangaroos have scored 336 runs for the loss of just 3 wickets. Initially, the Indian bowlers showed an aggressive game, however. Steve Smith and Travis Head built a partnership of over 200 to increase the pressure on India.

Steve Smith 103 while Travis Head is batting on 147 runs, Mohammad Shami, Mohammad Siraj and Shardul Thakur have got one wicket each for India.

Akash Chopra said that ICC should give the trophy to the team which has been in the top position for 2 consecutive years. On the other hand, former Australian cricketer Brad Hogg also raised the question that the Indian team is playing a Test match immediately after the IPL, ICC should have held the final during the Border Gavaskar Trophy.
