IND vs ENG: After England’s Test Series Triumph, Ishant Sharma was warmly welcomed by the Petes on his arrival at home. The clock

Ishant Sharma posted a video of the warm welcome he received from his dear friends on Tuesday, as he arrived home after India’s Test series win in England. In the video, Ishant can be seen standing at the door and three of his pet dogs came running from inside the house, waving their tails and leaping at him. “Feels like @toyandcocodogs when I get home,” Ishant captioned the video on Instagram. Ishant played all four Tests in the series but bowled only 59 overs, with the Indian spinners upset England’s batting at the turning track.

The veteran fast bowler, who became only the second Indian fast bowler after Kapil Dev to complete a century in Test matches, finished the series with six wickets at an average of 26.67.

Ishant has not played a limited overs match for India since 2016. His last ODI came in January 2016, while he last played a T20I match in October 2013.
