  • A great gesture from Kohli and his men.

    The Indian team dedicated the win in the third Test against England in Nottingham to the Kerala flood victims on Wednesday.

    India wrapped up a massive 203-run win in Trent Bridge to make it 1-2 in the five-match series. Fast bowlers Jasprit Bumrah and Hardik Pandya picked up five-wicket hauls while captain Virat Kohli led the way with the bat, scoring 200 runs, as the visitors put in one of their most dominant performances overseas.

    After the match, captain Kohli said the team stood by those affected by one of the worst floods in a century in the Indian state of Kerala.

    “We as a team want to dedicate the victory to the flood victims back home in Kerala. People are going through a lot, and this is the least we can do,” Kohli said.

    According to reports, the Indian team also dedicated their entire match fees to the flood victims.
