According to Broad, an important reason for India’s failure was the decision of the region. Shardul Thakur Instead of left hand wrist spinner Kuldeep YadavSpeaking at the podcast for cricket’s love, Waid said that the situations against the wrist spin against Edgbaston and England’s traditional vulgarity made Kuldeep an ideal option.

Bumrah rests another star player for EDGBASTON when resting
Looking forward for the second Test in Edgbaston, Broad made another idea: If Bumrah is rested as part of India’s Foundation Management Plan, the team must consider handing the debut to the left -handed seamor. Arshdeep SinghBroad argued that Arshdeep’s natural angle and the ability to quickly swing the ball could be a valuable property in English conditions.
Whereas Prasad krishna The second innings shown signs of improvement, Broad felt the Indian attack as a unit lacked the bite and continuity required to break the participation and maintain pressure. Arshdeep, who has taken 66 wickets in 21 first -class games on an average of 30.37, can bring very important freshness and left -handed variation. However, competition from the sky deep can complicate the selection decisions, especially with India, retreating in the series and under pressure to bounce back.
“If Bumrah is going to rest in Edgbaston, I will be wooed to bring it to Arshdeep Singh. His ability to swing the left hand and ball quickly may be somewhat different for India’s bowling attack. The test, and simply requires some twics instead of wholesale changes,” Composed widespread conclusion.
