The Great of England Reveals 'Sledging' Incident From 2012 Tour

The highly anticipated five-match Test series between the India and England cricket teams will kick off on January 25, with the first match being played in Hyderabad. Talking about the Test rivalry between the two teams, England have an upper edge over India. 

However, India will have the home advantage, and it will be a daunting task in front of the Three Lions. Recently, former England spinner Graeme Swann revealed some unheard tales about England’s 2012 tour of India, where the visitors claimed victory 2–1 in the four-match Test series.

Despite losing the first match, England bounced back in style, registered victories in the next two games, and clinched the series. The fourth match of the series ended in a draw, where Virat Kohli and skipper MS Dhoni scored 103 and 99 runs, respectively.


Speaking about Kohli, Swann revealed that the England players were advised not to get into an argument with the Delhi-based batter. He also stated that Kohli brutally scored runs off Steve Finn after the two got into a spat.


During a podcast, Swann revealed that, “We had been told beforehand not to say anything to this guy (Virat Kohli). Steven Finn got driven for a couple of incredible fours, lost the plot, got at him, and realized his mistake right away. Virat roared up like a tiger, and Finn just doubled down and got smashed everywhere.”
