India v England
"Seasoned campaigner, I wouldn't call him a youngster"
Four wickets in the first over across three innings
"The pink ball had more glare, so it was skidding more after pitching"
A move from the top drawer
"He was wearing noise-cancelling pads"
Patel is on the cusp of a Test debut
He last played a Test in 2019
"The focus was on winning the championship. That mental shift was decisive"
