As the 4th Test of the five-match series between India and England progresses, the hosts maintain a 2-1 lead. The penultimate Test has the potential to confirm a series win for Ben Stokes and Co if they manage to pull off the win, but if the game goes the visitors’ way, a thrilling decider will be played at The Oval.As things stand, India have lost their openers Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul, with the latter departing early in the second session to a Chris Woakes delivery, when he was caught out by Zak Crawley. Jaiswal went on to bag his half-century, before England spinner Liam Dawson took his wicket, marking his first Test wicket in 8 years. Skipper Gill was also dismissed for an underwhelming score of just 12 from 23 balls.While lots of action on the pitch went viral on Day 1, a hilarious moment between two Indian legends was also taken notice of on social media. Doing commentary for the exciting Test, Ravi Shastri took a hilarious dig at Indian legend Farokh Enginee. As the camera zoomed in on the legend, Shastri took a subtle jab at the 87-year-old, much to the delight of the latter. Listening on from the stands, the veteran chuckled when Shastri said, “A real pin-up boy in the 60s and 70s. Hugely popular and he’s not changed over the years. A great storyteller and a voracious eater even now. At lunch his plate will be full,” joked the former India head coach.Clearly speaking with admiration and respect for Engineer, Nasser Hussain added, “He’ll be just behind you in that all day buffet queue, Ravi.”Lancashire County Cricket Club paid tribute to the former India wicketkeeper and West Indies captain Clive Lloyd by naming stands after them at Old Trafford Stadium.Engineer’s impressive career at Lancashire spanned from 1968 to 1976, during which he played 175 matches. His numbers include 5,942 runs, 429 catches, and 35 stumpings. His presence at Lancashire proved pivotal as the club secured the Gillette Cup four times between 1970 and 1975, ending a 15-year trophy drought.
