England Spinner Bashir's Hilarious DRS Blunder Amidst India's Test Triumph
England spinner Shoaib Bashir became the subject of amusement during the fifth Test against India on Saturday, when he mistakenly requested a DRS review after being bowled. During the 46th over of England's second innings, Ravindra Jadeja's delivery clipped Bashir's off-stump, but the spinner, assuming he had been caught behind, opted for the DRS.
Bashir's comical gesture drew laughter from fans and former England spinner Graeme Swann, while his non-striker, Joe Root, couldn't help but smile. The incident came after Bashir had been criticized for his fiery send-offs during the match.
Earlier in the day, Bashir had claimed his second five-wicket haul of the series, helping to dismiss India for 477. However, India's Ravichandran Ashwin stole the show, taking a five-wicket haul in his landmark 100th Test.
India's dominance continued as they hammered England by an innings and 64 runs, clinching the series 4-1. England's James Anderson reached 700 Test wickets, becoming only the third bowler to achieve the feat.
Ashwin's off-spin proved devastating for England, bowling them out for 195 within three days. The victory was a testament to Ashwin's skill and India's overall superiority in the series.
