Never on the Backfoot is out with Episode 28. This episode is all about the 2nd test between India and England. With their big 317-run win in the second Test at the Chepauk, India have levelled the four-Test series at 1-1. The victory was crucial for India in the context of the World Test Championship as they need to win the series at least with a 2-1 margin or better to make the cut for the title clash against New Zealand.
I've focussed on Rohit Sharma's brilliance with the bat, India’s 1st innings, England’s 1st innings, India’s 2nd innings, England’s 2nd innings, Indian spinners and their prowess. Additionally, I've deliberated on the very impressive Ben Foakes and other misses for England in this test, underutilization of Stuart Broad and Ben Stokes, concluding it with a preview of the 3rd test and a look through of England’s Rotation policy.
