After registering a defeat despite an impressive first innings against England in the first Test, the Indian test cricket squad will aim to bounce back in the five-match Test series. The second test match of the series is scheduled to take place at Birmingham’s Edgbaston stadium on Wednesday (July 2).
Despite Rishabh Pant‘s excellent pair of hundreds and a century apiece from KL Rahul, Shubman Gill, and Yashasvi Jaiswal, India faced a sore defeat against the Ben Stokes-led England in the previous game. England exploited India’s expensive mistakes, including poor catching and an evolving bowling attack, in the previous clash. Experts have raised an urgent concern for the Shubman Gill-led Indian squad to work on these shortcomings ahead of their second test match against England.
