In India’s second innings, captain Shubman Gill is batting for 78 runs and opening batsman KL Rahul is batting for 87 runs. No Indian has scored a century in the last 35 years on this ground. If today Rahul, Gill or any other Indian batsman put a century on this ground, then today will be recorded in the pages of history. By the end of the fourth day’s play, India is still 137 runs behind.

What was the condition of the match?

In the Manchester Test, England won the toss and decided to bowl first. India scored 358 runs in the first innings, but no batsman scored a century. Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sai Sudarshan and Rishabh Pant played a half -century innings.

India’s second innings started on the fourth day of Manchester Test, in which two wickets of Team India fell without scoring any run. Yashasvi Jaiswal and Sai Sudarshan were dismissed without opening an account. At the same time, Gill and Rahul took over India’s innings and kept batting till the end of the fourth day’s play. Now if India has to save this match, then Team India will have to take this game towards a draw.

India never won in Manchester

India’s record at the Old Trafford ground in Manchester is quite bad. India played the first Test match at this ground in 1936. India has not won a single match on this ground since then. Team India has played 9 matches here, out of which 4 have lost and five matches have been drawn.

India vs england test: A new chapter of Team India is starting under the captaincy of Shubman Gill, the Indian cricket team adorned with most young players wants to create history by winning in England. But this will not be easy, because there are some weaknesses of Team India on this tour.

Under the captaincy of MS Dhoni, Virat Kohli, the Indian team played a total of 4 Test series in England, but could not win even in one. 3 England won and 1 draw. Now you can understand how difficult it is to win in England, this time most of the players in the team are young. Although there is no lack of enthusiasm in them, but still there are 5 such big weaknesses which remain the headache of Team India.

Jaspreet dependent on Bumrah

The biggest relief for the Indian team is that experienced bowler Jasprit Bumrah is in this tour, who has the power to collapse any batting unit. However, they cannot be completely dependent on them, because Chief Selector Ajit Agarkar had told at the time of the team’s announcement that Bumrah might not play all the matches. Bumrah himself has also confirmed that he will play only 3 Tests, so he refused to take over the captaincy. In such a situation, Gill will hop that players like Arshdeep Singh, famous Krishna, Shardul Thakur should do well. Ravindra Jadeja and Kuldeep will also have responsibility.

Trouble in front of swing

In England, you have to play and play, but Indian batsmen are not so good in this, and it is even more difficult to do so when swinging. England’s pitches help fast bowlers, the ball is more swing, there is an uneven bounce and Indian batsmen are not very good in front of the swing. Even captain Shubman Gill cannot play the swing very well. Karun Nair can be important, he also has experience of playing in England, but the big thing is that he is returning after 7 years in international, so will it also have a pressure on him. KL Rahul is also expected better, he also batted brilliantly in the practice match and scored a century against England Lions.

Shubman Gill’s record

Shubman Gill’s record on foreign land is not very good, if we talk about the test, its average is 35. They have trouble on swing balls and this will happen in all matches in England. Shubman Gill will have to do something that Virat Kohli did in 2018. Kohli was able to score 134 runs in 10 innings in England in 2014, but after that when he returned in 2018, he appeared in a different form. He scored 593 runs in the series, which was the highest run by one batsman in the series. During this, he scored 2 centuries and 3 half -centuries.

Fielding has to be improved

Fielding of Indian players has also always been a big problem. Due to the presence of Virat, there was different enthusiasm in the fielding department, if he is not there, then what will it be like? It will be interesting to see this. Dux ball is very swing in England, if the winds are often fast, then it is not easy to catch a catch. In such a situation, the practice of slip catch and fielding will be important.

Lack of experience in Indian batsmen

Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma’s departure has had a huge impact in this team, the batting order will have to be changed. Many young players will get a chance, but will they be able to feel pressure to play in England? Good good batsmen do not play easily in England, it is also difficult for him. There is a lack of experience in the Indian batting line up. Therefore KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant will have to do well.
