IND vs ENG: Believe it or not, 'Baseball' has passed its first test on Indian soil. Not only because England defeated Team India in the Hyderabad Test, but also because the Indian team management has also started talking about it. Coach Rahul Dravid admitted after the defeat of the first test that some solution would have to be found before the next match. Now the second Test between the two teams is going to start after just a day and it seems that Team India has found the answer to baseball, which can be called 'Razball'.

The second test match between India and England will start from February 2 in Visakhapatnam. Team India will have to make a comeback from this match otherwise it may be difficult to win the Test series. But India's path is not so easy. On the one hand, the team has already suffered defeat, on top of that, two stars of the first test in the form of Ravindra Jadeja and KL Rahul are out due to injury. Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer are not scoring runs. There is pressure on him to deal with the aggressive style of England.

Who is the creator of 'Rageball'?

Team India sweated profusely in the ground of Visakhapatnam to defeat England 2 days before the match. Especially in this, preparations were made to defeat England in its own style and out of this came 'Razball'. Yes, this name has not been discussed yet but the world can see its glimpse in Visakhapatnam. 'Razball' is not related to star players like Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill or Yashasvi Jaiswal, rather its creator is the newest member of the team, Rajat Patidar, who can debut in Visakhapatnam.

How is 'Rageball' being prepared?

Now you might be wondering what is this ‘rageball’? In fact, Team India played sweep and reverse sweep shots for a long time in the practice session on Wednesday, January 31. England had troubled Team India with these shots in the first test and scored 420 runs in the second innings. In such a situation, its effect was visible in the practice of Team India also. According to the report, most of the batsmen of Team India practiced these shots, in which Rajat Patidar hit the most sweep shots.

According to the report, when it came time for Patidar's batting practice, he first played sweep shots on 5 out of 6 balls against Ravichandran Ashwin and Axar Patel, which were quite powerful. Even after this, the same sequence continued and after some time, facing only Ashwin, he used the same shot again. Now if Rajat gets a chance to debut, then the Indian innings may also be full of sweep shots. It remains to be seen whether he can destroy England with 'Rageball' or not?
