Ind vs eng 2nd test: The India vs England Test series started from June 20. Despite the lead in the Leeds Test, Team India lost the match by 5 wickets, as a result India is trailing 0–1 in the five-match Test series. Now the second Test will be played in Birmingham from July 2. In the first Test, many flaws of the Indian team were exposed. In such a situation, take a look at those 3 tasks, which the Indian team must do in the second Test match.
1. Lower order batsmen cooperation is necessary
One of the main reasons for the defeat of the Indian team in the Leeds Test was the flop of the lower order batsmen. In the first innings, India’s last 7 wickets fell within just 41 runs, while in the second innings, Team India lost the last 6 wickets in a span of 31 runs. India could easily score 550 in the first innings, but this could not happen due to the failure of the lower order batsmen. With this, Team India could have gained a big lead in the first innings. When the turn of the second innings came, the Indian team was moving towards England to keep a target of 450+, but due to the failure of the lower order, the target was fixed only 371.
2. Apart from Bumrah, other bowlers will have to take responsibility
In the first innings of the first Test match of the series, Jasprit Bumrah took 5 wickets, besides his balls also missed many catches. He could not take any wicket in the second innings, but the other bowlers had taken care of very late and by then the match had gone out of India’s hands. The famous Krishna took 5 wickets in the match, but Team India was very heavy for the economy rate of more than 6. In the second Test match, it would not be a bad option to include Akashdeep in the playing XI in place of the famous Krishna.
3. Kuldeep Yadav’s entry into playing XI
After the defeat in the first Test match, Sunil Gavaskar reacted sharply and said that in the second Test match, Kuldeep Yadav should be replaced in the playing XI in place of Shardul Thakur. Gavaskar said that a wrist spinner on Birmingham pitch can prove to be very effective. Kuldeep does not have much experience of playing in England, but Birmingham’s pitch may be helpful for spinners after the third day.
