India vs England Second Test Preview

England's performance in the last test match in Rajkot was more than alarming bell for India.
An envious home record was put to some threat in the last test, that certainly made Indian team put on their thinking hats, to better their strategy and tactics.

England have clearly shown their intent that they are up for a challenge. And as England skipper Alastair Cook said,  "We are here to give India a run for their money." It's time for Indian team to tighten up their belts.

Five test series is a long journey so each team has to be vigil in every department not leaving any loophole.

Spinners friendly pitches will be there but the stats from the last test tells a different story. Indian spinners only managed 9 wickets giving out 521 runs in total.
Also the fact that Indian batsmen are good players of spin bowling, Indian team only had two centuries while England got four.

But a new day means a new start and Indian team knows the importance of this test. With KL Rahul coming into the side, Gambhir may have to surrender his place.
Virat Kohli will have to lead this young Indian side with all his diligence as they will be up against the only team whom they have not managed to beat in the last few years.


Second Test starts at 9:00am IST in the beautiful city of Vishakhapatnam.
