five slowest innings of Test cricket!!!

Most of the time Test cricket is a mental game. Here the batsmen have a goal of how to weaken the bowler mentally. For this, the batsmen try to run from the wicket for hours. With his own innings, he gradually made it bigger. The biggest version of cricket tends to play big innings. This requires a lot of patience. In Test cricket, Gayle, Hayden, and Sehwag are seen taking the world by storm. But their number is less in the test. Tests are mainly played by those who can stay here for a long time without worrying about runs. Cheteshwar Pujara and Rahul Dravid have a special place here. They bat here to exhale the bowlers. Sometimes when the batsmen create a lot of big obstacles, the bowlers' patience is broken. Slow innings over a long period of time are often seen in Test cricket.
