4th Test: Pacers-short India Look To Dig Deep At Old Trafford Vs England
Captain Shubman Gill: As India and England head into the fourth Test at Old Trafford, starting on Wednesday, the drama, intensity, and unpredictability of this enthralling series continue to live up to that statement. India trail 1-2 in the five-match series, and while the loss at the Lord’s still stings—with run-outs that shouldn’t have been and shots that could’ve been played better—the visitors are looking to reshape that reality.
Captain Shubman Gill will be banking on Jasprit Bumrah, whose ability to sweet-talk destiny could be the push India desperately need. With Akash Deep and Nitish Kumar Reddy ruled out due to injury, India are likely to hand a recall to B. Sai Sudharsan at No. 3, while Prasidh Krishna or the uncapped Anshul Kamboj could slot in as the third seamer.
Kamboj, notably, picked up all ten wickets in a Ranji Trophy innings last season. Conditions may even tip selection in favour of seam-bowling all-rounder Shardul Thakur over Washington Sundar.
