India 1979-80

Back

India gained revenge over much the same Pakistan side that had easily beaten then a year earlier in an often bitter six-Test series. The big difference was the emergence of Kapil Dev who finished with 32 wickets, as well an infusion of new players which gave them a far more aggressive feel in the field. India's selectors also kept faith, with only 12 players used in all. In 1978-79, India were unable to bowl Pakistan out even once in three Tests. This time they did so seven times in 11 innings, each time for totals under 300 and twice for less than 200. Apart from Wasim Raja and Javed Miandad, not one batsman averaged even 30. The two results came in the third Test at Bombay where India won by 131 runs after bowling Pakistan out for 190 and 173, and in the fifth at Madras where Kapil's 11 wickets and 166 from Gavaskar, who led India in the first five games, was enough. Unable to tour West Indies later in the season, Gavaskar stood down for the final Test which Pakistan controlled throughout without being able to force a win.
