Team India will need to make some changes before the second game. Here, we take a look at the list of three bold decisions India could take for the second Test against England.
1) Play an extra batting all-rounder
India’s strategy of playing five bowlers is not giving dividends. At the same time, the lower batting order has been poor. It is best if India plays an extra batting all-rounder. Nitish Kumar Reddy is the best option available at the moment.
2) Dropping Karun Nair for Dhruv Jurel is one of the decisions India could take for the second Test against England
It would be harsh on Karun. However, he did not inspire confidence in his comeback game. Dhruv Jurel is a future star and it is a better investment to groom him at the moment. He is also in good form and deserves a chance.
3) Debut for Arshdeep Singh
As per reports, Jasprit Bumrah is set to rest for the next game. It is a big blow for Team India, especially after the loss at Leeds. While Akash Deep is ahead on the list, India could consider handing a debut to Arshdeep Singh. A left-arm pacer will add variety to the attack.
