Rajiv’s report from England. Each team has a leadership group and when a fate is doubted during the match, the captain of the team goes to the players who have the most trust and asks their opinion. Ben Stokes, considered the mastermind of the strategy, often consult Joe Root and Oli Pope. One of them was former captain and the other was his deputy in Test cricket.
3 captains on the field
Captain scattered under pressure
The former Indian left -handed spinner, seen under Gill pressure, felt that Gill was chasing the ball, he means that the fielder would be kept in the direction where the last boundary was installed. In other words, they were reactive rather than being active. Karthik also feels that Team India’s performance in the first session was very poor and English opener looked under control. He said, “Shubman Gill was under pressure. When it came to the field placement, he was chasing the ball. In the first session on the fifth day, it never felt that India was going to get a wicket and I know that a catch was missed but by then the bet had gone out of hand.
