India vs England 2021: "Boys helped me stay strong" - Leach on comeback after Pant hammering
Riding on Leach (4/76) and James Anderson’s (3/17) fine bowling, England crushed India by 227 runs in Chennai on Tuesday (February 9) to take a 1-0 lead in the four-match series.
Leach, who was taken to the task by a belligerent Pant on the third day, shone bright when the hosts came out to bat again.
“Thought he (Pant) was playing in the IPL. It’s a challenge that comes for a spinner. Was a tough evening that one but boys helped me stay strong,” Leach said after the match.
