In the 3rd Test match held at the Niranjan Shah Stadium, Rajkot, Team India registered an excellent victory. With this, they are leading the series with a 2-1 lead in the 5 match series.
Coming into the ring with a target of 557 runs, the England team did not give much competition from the first wicket. Ravindra Jadeja bowled only 122 runs and the entire England team was bowled out. Except for England player Mark Wood's 33 runs off 14 balls, no other player could reach the mark of at least 20 runs.
Rohit Sharma's leadership skills and excellent performance by the players led to a huge victory of 434 runs in the 3rd Test. This victory was the biggest victory for Team India in terms of runs in the history of Test cricket.

Meanwhile, this is the second biggest defeat for the England team in the history of Test cricket. But in the first place in 1934, the England team against Australia lost by a huge margin of 563 runs.
Ravindra Jadeja, who impressed with his all-round performance with a century in the 1st innings and took 7 wickets in two innings and played a key role in the huge victory of Team India, was awarded the player of the match award.
