Josh Tongue's Emotional Comeback and Victory for Notts

England's Josh Tongue was emotional after a successful debut for Nottinghamshire.

Josh Tongue's return to cricket was nothing short of remarkable. The 27-year-old, who missed the entire 2024 campaign due to injuries, made his long-awaited debut for Nottinghamshire. His seven wickets against Durham at Trent Bridge were a highlight, including a match-turning four wickets in 12 deliveries on the final day. Tongue also scored his maiden first-class half-century and played a crucial role in the eight-wicket win. After facing injury setbacks and doubts, his comeback was truly inspiring.

It's clear that Tongue's hard work and determination paid off, and his performance has given Nottinghamshire a great start to the season.
