At 1 pm even as several hundreds of fans were making a delayed entry into the MA Chidambaram Stadium after spending long hours in queues to pick daily tickets, India sprung a surprise with the timing of their declaration. With a lead of 514, they definitely had enough on board when Rohit Sharma called back Shubman Gill and KL Rahul at 287/4 in the second innings. Few had expected India to declare then as the pitch hadn’t shown any signs of listening to their bowlers. Maybe, India believed even if they delayed it by an hour or so, it wasn’t going to make much of a difference. Maybe, they wanted to have a go at the Bangladesh batsmen after tiring them out on the field. In the first innings, on what was the best day for batting, Indian bowlers had overcome extreme heat conditions to take control. But for them to close out the match now, they needed to toil hard. It wasn’t going to come easy on this pitch, which hasn’t undergone as much …

Under the sombre Lord’s sky, a 16-year-old walks out to bat for the first time in a Test match. He looks younger; commentator Mike Atherton says he could pass off as a 10-year-old. He is barely five feet tall; when he coils into his stance, he looks tinier. The English fast bowlers bounding in are giants. Steve Harmison and Andrew Flintoff are six feet four inches, Simon Jones six feet-three; Matthew Hoggard, at six feet-two, is the shortest of the lot. The famous quartet had blown the top order away, and had reclaimed the Ashes a few months ago. But the teenager, with the face of an adolescent and going by the name Mushfiqur Rahim, doesn’t flutter his eyes. Three days ago, after a hundred in a tour game, he made a statement that belied his age. “Age and height are just numbers.” For 57 balls, he justified the talk, blocked and blunted the foursome with the maturity of a seasoned sailor steering a rocking ship through a tempest. He scored only 19, and England …
