The ongoing India vs England test series 2021 is increasing fans excitement match by match. The first match ended with a drawn due rain on day 5. In the second test India perform extraordinarily and won game,the same occurred in the third game but this time in England's favour. Now booked the team aiming to win the fourth match to take a lead in the series.
India lost the third game because of its batting line-up collapse. It is near to impossible to win a match when the team all out for 78 runs. English seamers bowling in the right areas and testing indian batters Patience. Rahul performed well in the first three innings but got out in single digit score in the last three innings. Rohit is playing great, fans just waiting for a three digits score. He is starting well, reaching his fifty but couldn't converted into Hundred.
Pujara was totally out of form and looking under confident,but in the second innings of the third test he showed his class. He need to retain the form in the remaining matches of the series.
The real headache of Indian team and India fans is Virat Kohli's batting form. Kohli is struggling from the beginning of the first match to till now. The run machine is struggling to make runs. The biggest surprise is,he has got any century in the last 51 innings. We used to see him getting century very frequently,but unlike to his nature he has not made any three digit score in the last 50 plus innings across the format. In the recent series he always caught in the slips or by the wicketkeeper by the similar fashion in the fourth or fifth off stump delivery. He is not leaving or judging the ball well. It seems he is confused wheather to play the ball or leave it. So by this confusion he is playing the wrong ball, dismissing himself. He need to overcome this as soon as possible.
The vice captain Rahane batting is extremely poor throughout the series. He is not playing confidently, resulting early dismissal. The same is happening with Rishabh Pant also. He is very good behind the wicket as a wicketkeeper but couldn't contribute to the team. He need to play catiously and carefully.
It seems Jadeja is going to replaced by Ashwin in the next match. Jadeja is unable to give break through. He played good in the first match as a batsman but disappointed as a bowler in the whole series.
India have to make good plans and have to execute them as well to win the fourth match and to take lead in the series.
