जब 'वैसलीन' से हार गया था भारत! अंग्रेजों ने मैच में की थी ऐसी चीटिंग

Have you thought that a cricket game can turn out from the Vaseline, which is applied on the body? If not, then let us tell you that the first thing in the history of the ball was the first case of tampering when the game changed with the use of Vaseline in the match between India and England. In 1977, India had charged England with ball-tampering.

In 1977, the England team was on a tour of India after England won two consecutive Tests, England's team faced India in the third Test in Chennai. Even here the middle-pace bowler John Lover's ball was swinging wilyly, while the pitch's mood was not so.

John had been the subject of discussion since the first match of the series because he played 7 wickets for 46 runs and 3 wickets for 24 runs in the first of the series played in Delhi and in his debut match.
