The test match between India and England is being played at Lord’s ground. This is the first Test match in history on this ground, on which Indian captain Harmanpreet Kaur has created history. She scored 58 runs in the first innings, making her the first Indian cricketer to score a fifty in all three formats at Lord’s.
Till now, in men’s or women’s cricket, no Indian has been able to score a half-century in all three formats while playing at Lord’s ground. Harmanpreet has created history by defeating legends like Virat Kohli, Sachin Tendulkar, Mithali Raj.
Earlier, Harmanpreet Kaur had scored fifty at Lord’s ground in ODI and T20. Now she achieved a historic feat by scoring a half-century in the first women’s Test at Lord’s.
Captain Harmanpreet came to bat in the first innings when the Indian team had lost 3 wickets at the score of 101. Meanwhile, he made an important partnership of 89 runs with Smriti Mandhana. Team India’s first 2 wickets had fallen by 37 runs, but thanks to the half-centuries of Smriti Mandhana, Harmanpreet Kaur and Deepti Sharma, Team India scored 285 runs in the first innings.
Smriti Mandhana missed the 18th century of her international career, scoring 83 runs. In response to India’s 285 runs, England had scored 21 runs at the loss of one wicket at stumps on the first day. Let us tell you that after 1995, England has never been able to defeat the Indian team in women’s Test cricket. This was the only time when England got victory over Team India in the women’s test.
