The English batter became the first player in Test history to be dismissed for 99 in the first innings and follow it up with a golden duck in the second.<\/p>\n<p>Brook had played a sensational knock in the first innings, falling agonisingly short of a century at 99. But in a dramatic turn of events on Day 5, he was dismissed on the very first ball he faced in the second innings. Trying to tickle a delivery from Shardul Thakur down the leg side, Brook ended up edging it to wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant, handing India a crucial breakthrough.<\/p>\n<p>This rare combination \u2014 a 99 followed by a golden duck \u2014 highlights the fine margins of Test cricket. From nearly being a centurion to registering a pair of contrasting dismissals, Brook\u2019s outing in the match reflects the highs and lows that the format can offer in just a matter of days. His dismissal has reignited India\u2019s hopes, especially after Duckett\u2019s departure, as England chase 102 more runs with six wickets in hand.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Harry Brook etched his name into the record books for an unusual and unwanted feat during the ongoing 1st Test\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":250,"featured_media":31755,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8976","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cricket"],"reading_time":"1 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8976","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/250"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8976"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8976\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/31755"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8976"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8976"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8976"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
