IND vs AFG Live: Afghanistan reach 18/0 at lunch after India enforce follow-on -- IND vs AFG Live Score, One-Off Test Match Day 3: Barely a few hundred spectators were present to witness a memorable moment in Indian cricket as debutant Manav Suthar announced himself on the Test stage with a magnificent six-wicket haul against Afghanistan on the third day of the one-off Test today. The left-arm spinner's relentless spell of 6 for 33 helped dismiss the visitors for just 152 and allowed India to enforce the follow-on with a massive lead of 412 runs.

Suthar, who had already impressed with his classical approach on the second day, completed a rare feat by becoming only the 10th Indian to take a five-for on Test debut and the seventh spinner from the country to achieve the milestone. Bowling unchanged for long periods, he consistently extracted turn and bounce while keeping the Afghan batters under constant pressure.

Only Rahmat Shah offered any significant resistance. Fresh from becoming Afghanistan's first batter to score 1,000 Test runs, the experienced right-hander made a gritty 60 off 135 deliveries with nine boundaries and a six. He shared a stubborn stand with the injured Sharafuddin Ashraf, who courageously batted despite struggling with what appeared to be a hamstring issue. But once Suthar removed both batters in quick succession, the innings folded rapidly.

Afghanistan made a cautious start to their second essay and reached 18 without loss by lunch, though they still require 394 more runs to avoid an innings defeat against a rampant Indian side.
