Starting on January 25, the Indian squad will play a five-match Test series against England. With the series coming to an end, captain Rohit Sharma’s remarks regarding the surface during the second Test grabbed headlines. India, under Rohit Sharma, will enter the series having drawn the two-game Test series against South Africa.
Rohit attacked the critics who frequently examine the subcontinent grounds that benefit the spinners, as the second Test between India and the Proteas will conclude in just two days because of the pitch’s peculiarities. The captain stated that rather than whining about the field, the teams ought to try to play their best.
Given Rohit Sharma’s recent remarks, I see it impossible for India to stop generating bunsens, or spinning pitches.
In the same remarks, England’s bowling coach, Jeetan Patel, predicted that their series against India would go south. In order to better prepare themselves to face India, Patel stated that they had prepared a number of tracks in Abu Dhabi.
“Dudes want volume, whether they are bowling or hitting; they need to work and consider their options.” However, there’s going to be a tight line when it comes to preparation for this one.. That’s the entire purpose of home advantage, and with good reason. Thus, in Abu Dhabi, we have asked for a variety of pitches,” Patel said to The Guardian.
While we want to test men, we also want to make sure they have adequate confidence when they get to India. Patel
Jeetan Patel also emphasized the significance of England maintaining a high level of excitement because the India journey will be lengthy. Beginning on January 25, the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad will host the opening test of the series between the two teams.
In addition to challenging the lads, we want to make sure they travel to India with the self-assurance to play freely and compete like they did for the past two years. The tour is quite lengthy. When they take the field for their first test, we want them to be full of enthusiasm and excitement rather than two weeks into their stay and not as mentally prepared as they may be, Patel said.
