Former Indian cricketer Kiran More voiced his support for Team India after their setback in the first Test of the five-match series against England. More highlighted the necessity for patience, noting that India's youthful squad requires more time to develop into a formidable unit.
England's Ben Duckett was instrumental in setting up a historic run chase with his impressive 149, enabling England to successfully pursue a target of 371. This remarkable chase resulted in England securing a 1-0 lead in the series at Headingley.
In an interview with ANI, More stressed the significance of giving Team India more time, asserting that team building is a gradual process. Despite recording five centuries during the match, India found themselves at the receiving end of a defeat, a rare occurrence. England's chase ranks as one of the most significant, behind only Australia's 404-run win against England in 1948.
