India’s defeat in the headingley test caused three major mistakes: failure to score decisive, weak bowling selection and failure in captaincy.
Delhi: Where the headingley was talking about India’s victory in the Test, but after that the test was overturned. At one time India’s lead 339 runs, 6 wickets were still left and why did a batsman at the crease lose after this?
It is clear that there were some such mistakes which also made a huge impact with the mistakes made in the Test earlier and lost. So which mistakes of the Handingley Test will have to work before the Edgbaston Test? It is not easy to return after 0-1 on a foreign tour, but it is not impossible. So let’s discuss the three issues where improvement has to be made:
Which team will spoil the innings twice in the Test? Out at 430/3 to 471 in the first innings and out of 287/3 to 364 in the second innings. At that time, due to lack of killer instinct, they could not change them into the score that won the test. This work was to be done by the frozen batsman and Gill in the first innings and Rishabh Pant in the second innings cheated. Will not win with such negligence and fun batting in England. Instead of being happy on your 100 record, change it into such a big score that the situation for another team becomes ‘impossible’. This has happened in England in two consecutive Tests (Edgbaston 2022, Handingley 2025). As long as every cricketer of the team himself does not play with the excitement of winning the Test alone, this will continue to happen.
Did not do so and actually played with the headingley test 10 players. Shardul Thakur was fed thinking that ‘can bat’ but contribution: 16 out of 183 and only 5 runs with bat. If you did not get two wickets on two cheap balls, they would not throw so many overs. So first of all, play with such bowling that can take 20 wickets.
Especially due to not being the top partner with Bumrah, this mistake and exposure were made. This could not happen with Siraj and famous. So stop experimenting like Shardul Thakur. Get the lower batsmen batting practice on the nets as a total of 65 runs in two innings of number 6-11 increased the pressure on bowling. Together, if Bumrah is to be fed in three Tests, then what is the need to beat her up? Bumrah might not play the card before the Edgbaston Test. Where is the bowling line up taking 20 wickets in the hope of returning 0–1 without his top bowler?
In the headingley, India did not get a single wicket from the review and it was clear that it was clear that he did not practice the review, whereas today it is a bonus for the captain. It was known that Shubman is new and will not prove to be a top captain in the Test, but now he will have to show control on the game of the team. This is not a franchise T20 cricket. Improvement in fielding, understanding the price of his wicket and every time every player will have to bring these merits into the team. Only then will you be able to come in the list of big Test captains of India.
