Rachin Ravindra: The first test match is being played on the grounds of Bengaluru. In this match, the Indian team was reduced to just 46 runs in the first innings. After this the New Zealand team scored 402 runs in the first innings. Then Team India scored 231 runs at the loss of 3 wickets in the second innings. On the third day of the match, Virat Kohli was out on the last ball. While he was batting brilliantly. He scored a total of 70 runs in the match. There was a partnership of 136 runs between Sarfaraz Khan and Kohli for the third wicket. Kohli became the victim of Glenn Phillips on the last ball.
Rachin Ravindra said in the press conference after the end of the third day’s play that it is difficult to speculate about tomorrow. They have a great batting line-up on this flat wicket, so we will have to bowl disciplined. But I think Kohli’s wicket was very important in the end. He said that he has scored more than 9000 test runs and he is a big wicket for us. We know how quickly the situation changes here. Hopefully we will be able to take some wickets tomorrow morning also.
Rachin Ravindra scored a century
New Zealand is still 125 runs ahead of India on the basis of first innings lead and Rachin Ravindra played an important role in taking the lead by scoring 134 runs. Ravindra had taken training at Chennai Super Kings Academy before this tour, which benefited him. He said that it was a great experience. It was a great start to the six Tests in the subcontinent. I practiced well on red and black clay wickets which helped a lot.
Said this for father
Rachin Ravindra’s father Ravi Krishnamurthy was also present in the stadium to watch the match. Ravindra said that it was a big thing to have his father in the audience. Many family members are watching the match at the stadium and at home. They are proud of me and I am happy about it. I know mom and dad would be proud of me. I feel good playing such innings in his city. I’m a New Zealander all the way but it was nice to see my Indian heritage in Bengaluru.
