England's Weak Link Is The Top Three As India Cement Theirs

By IANS News January 27, 2021 • 19:56 PM View: 858

While India cemented their top-order batting on the recent tour of Australia with Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill settling in as opening pair and Cheteshwar Pujara already there at No. 3, England's top-order in comparison looks shaky ahead of the four-Test tour of India.

With both England openers Zak Crawley and Dominic Sibley failing to get big scores - Sibley got just one fifty in four innings and Crawley got none - in the recent Test series against Sri Lanka, England's problems were compounded when they decided to send back home Jonny Bairstow, who batted at No.3 and averaged 46.33 in Sri Lanka.
