It's High Time That India Thinks Of Putting A Specialist In Gully, Slip Area: Bangar
Sanjay Bangar: Ahead of the second Test against England in Birmingham, starting Wednesday, former India batting coach Sanjay Bangar shared his insights on how Gill and Co. can bounce back by sharpening close-in fielding and said the visitors real focus on developing a best catcher in the gully and slips, area where a lot of those catches go.
Despite posting a combined 835 runs across their two innings, India’s bowling attack, barring Jasprit Bumrah, failed to impose themselves on the English batters. After being ahead of England in most of the sessions in the first Test match, India failed to capitalise on the advantage on the final day and close out a win, with the hosts securing a five-wicket victory on the back of Ben Duckett's 149.
"The best way to win this particular Test match is by looking at the combination. And that's why I believe that if the top order and the middle order performed so well for India in the first Test match, then I don't think the team management should really worry about who is going to give you runs at number eight," Bangar said.
