Laxman recounts how India turned the tide in Kolkata Test in 2001
The lockdown has also been a time to recollect and reminisce. TOI caught up with the wristy maestro as he recalled the 2001 India-Australia Test match at Eden Gardens in Kolkata played from March 11-15. Laxman’s 281 (631 min, 452b, 44x4) in the second innings after India were asked to follow on by Steve Waugh was rated as the knock of the century by Wisden. And the win, which helped India level the series 1-1 before they clinched the series 2-1 in Chennai, was a glorious high in Test cricket.
