1st Test: Stokes' Decision At Toss Was Right, Bowlers Didn’t Execute Their Plans, Says Broad
Former England fast-bowler Stuart Broad believes skipper Ben Stokes’ decision to bowl first in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy series opener against India was the right one and added that it was the bowlers who didn’t execute their plans well on a hot day at Headingley.
On Friday, Stokes chose to bowl first after winning the toss, with Shubman Gill also admitting he was looking to bowl as well if the coin had fallen in his favour. But that decision backfired as India ended day one at 359/3, with Gill making an unbeaten 127, while opener Yashasvi Jaiswal slammed 101 and Rishabh Pant hitting 65 not out.
