ENG vs IND: What are the changes India have made to their playing for the 4th test in Manchester?

India are 2-1 down in the five-match test series against England.

The England Cricket Team and the Indian Cricket Team are locking horns with each other in fourth test of the five-match series. The game between the two teams is taking place at Old Trafford in Manchester, and will be a series decider. 

India, who are 2-1 down in the series, will be keen to level the series. A loss here would mean curtains for them in the series. They had their moments in the last three games, and had they cashed on that, it’s fair to say that they could’ve been 3-0 up in the series. 

Coming into the ongoing test at Manchester, India are under massive pressure. However, over the years, we have seen that they thrive well under pressure. It will be a great opportunity for them to showcase their skills and level the series. 

India make three changes to their playing for the 4th test in Manchester against England 

India have made quite a few changes to their XI for the fourth test against England. The Shubman Gill-led side was forced to make a few changes due to the injuries to key players in Akash Deep and Nitish Kumar Reddy. 

India made three changes, replacing Sai Sudharsan, who played the first test, with Karun Nair. The senior batter failed to convert his starts in the last three games and paid the price in the fourth test. Shardul Thakur replaced Nitish Kumar Reddy as a second change. 

Also, they handed a debut cap to Anshul Kamboj. The Haryana pacer replaced Akash Deep, who suffered a groin injury in the third test at Lord’s Cricket Ground in London.
