Perhaps the most crucial test innings by an Indian #7

[Gambit]

22* (48b 3x4) Who am I referring to?

[Chandan]

Who is it? Dhoni? Parthiv? Or someone from older matches??

If it was Engineer's innings in 1971 oval test, it was 28*, that was crucial to India's chase in the second innings of 174 in 101 overs. Yes, they needed 101 overs to get to 174. Boy, talk about nerves in the first overseas series win in Eng!!!!!

Given the fact that Kapil batted at number 7 for most of his career, he would have the greatest number 7 innings by an Indian. Also, Mongia's 52 in the Chennai test was from number 7.

I once hit 22 n.o. at #7 for Toonumbar. :regular_smile:

[Gambit]

No one has got it thus far. This might give it away though. #7 in question played that innings in his debut test.

Great question. Had to dig through some 30 or 40 scorecards before getting to this Test match but once I reached there, it was obvious :regular_smile:

Dighe in the Chennai test '01? If it is then the debut test hint answered it for me.

Correct. Among the innings I've seen, that has to be the most crucial contribution from an Indian #7(maybe even the most crucial knock from an Indian wk among the games I've seen). Winning a test against a team, that was probably among the two best teams of all times, with the series tied 1-1, was an unforgettable achievement.

[Gambit]

And all this after he had been crucified for his abysmal keeping in the test!

sheesh are you serious ... 30 - 40 score cards ... PM kiya hota ... select * from batting where runs = 22 and howout = 'not out' and balls = 22 and fours = 3 and battingteam = 'India'

Hmmm.. Select it on which site??

good question, i knew exactly which game you were referring to but forgot the guy's name.
