Eng V Ind: Players Honour Ahmedabad Air Tragedy Victims | First Sports With Rupha Ramani | N18G
It’s a new era in Indian cricket — and the first Test between India and England marks the beginning of a massive transition. With Shubman Gill taking over as captain, nerves were visible at the toss itself. As India fielded a youthful side featuring Sai Sudharsan’s debut and Karun Nair’s emotional comeback, the contrast with England’s experienced lineup couldn’t be starker. But this is no ordinary series — it comes on the back of major retirements of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, questions over leadership, and intense scrutiny around team selections. Rupha Ramani breaks down the significance of this bold new phase for Indian Test cricket, the emotional moments, and the defining questions this team must answer under pressure. Can this next-gen Indian team defy the odds and make history in England?
Also on the show, South Africa’s World Test Championship (WTC) win over Australia meant more than just silverware. A country that once fought Apartheid saw a black captain lift ICC silverware. Has this quashed the “quota captain ” tag and does this mark a massive shift in the gentlemen’s game? And owing to the Israel-Iran conflict, the AFC Women’s Asian Cup Qualifiers fixtures have been moved from Jordan to Qatar. While this was due to security concerns, why did the AFC not listen to Mohun Bagan last year? Despite moving Cristiano Ronaldo’s game, AFC was stern with the Indian club. Does this highlight their double standards?
