The second test has been and gone, another really good match but this time India got on top early and didn’t release their grip. In the end the home team won comfortably enough on paper but England fought back hard and the hosts were never comfortable until the last wicket fell. This time the key individual performances all came from Indian players; Jaiswal, Gill and especially Bumrah. But even in defeat England still look a good, confident team, the brave selection of young unheralded spinners has been a success and Stokes’ team doesn’t seem to feel any pressure. If England can get ahead of the game at any future stage we know India will definitely feel it. I still fancy England to win this series but whatever the final result it’ll be fun.
I actually tuned in to Talksport for the final session and it was even more awful than I remember.
