Highlights
- Indian captain Gill’s statement after winning Edgbaston
- Feeding Sundar instead of Kuldeep due to batting
- In this sense, Kuldeep Yadav is difficult to play in the entire series
Now after winning the second Test of the Indian team, the compulsion of not feeding Kuldeep Yadav has been exposed. According to the Indian captain Shubman Gill, everyone wants to keep wicket -taking spinner in the playing XI in the playing XI, but after the lower order was dismissed twice in the leads, Washington Sundar was prevented to replace the batting.
When you have a bowler like Kuldeep, it is very attractive. I wanted to feed Washington because our current strengthens our batting. I think the partnership between me and Washington proved to be very important. If this partnership was not there, then perhaps our lead would have been 70-80-90 runs, which is very different from the lead of 180 runs psychologically.
As we had expected, even on the fifth day, the ball was not getting more turn than the pitch, this was happening only when the ball was eating Tappa on ‘Rough’. I had said before the Test match that I do not really believe in figures or history. In the last 50-60 years, we have played only seven matches with different situations and different teams here. I believe this is the best Indian team, who comes to England and has the ability to defeat them and win the series from here. We have the right rhythm. If we continue to struggle, I think it will be one of the memorable chains.
