IND vs ENG
India vs England 4th Test Playing 11: The England team had defeated India by 28 runs in the first test match. Then everyone felt that baseball would prove effective in India also. But after winning the first test, every move of England has backfired. England suffered a humiliating defeat by 106 runs in the second test and by 434 runs in the third test match. This is England’s second biggest defeat in the history of Test cricket in terms of runs. The England team is trailing 2-1 in the five-Test series. The fourth Test match between India and England will be played on Ranchi grounds from 23 February. But there may be a change in the playing eleven of England for this test match.
Might get a chance for the first time in the series
The England team is lagging behind in the series. For this reason, the England team led by Ben Stokes would like to win the fourth Test match at any cost. According to the report of ESPNcricinfo, England bowler Ollie Robinson is ready to play the first match in the current series for the fourth Test match. England had played only one fast bowler in the first Test match. Then Mark Wood got the place. But after this Wood was out of the second test and James Anderson got a chance. In the third test match, both Anderson and Wood got a chance. But both the players were not successful in impressing. Both these players took a total of 5 wickets in the third match. After this, both these fast bowlers were not able to take even a single wicket in the second innings.
Fast bowlers could not perform well
For this reason, Mark Wood may be rested from the fourth Test match and Ollie Robinson is likely to get a chance. The report of ESPNcricinfo further states that the England team will also have to decide whether they want to continue with James Anderson or give a chance to Shoaib Basir in the playing eleven. Anderson has taken six wickets at an average of 35.83 in his two matches so far in the Test series against India.
So many wickets for England
Ollie Robinson played his last match against Australia in July. After this he performed disappointingly in the Ashes. But he bowled well on the Pakistan tour and then dismissed nine people at an average of 21.22. Whereas in Pakistan then the fast bowlers did not get any help from the pitch. So far, he has taken 76 wickets for England in 19 matches at an average of 22.21.
