This test match between England and India has been very interesting to watch. The pitch has given all the bowlers encouragement and the batsmen could play their shots if they are good enough. In the end, it is the class of Kholi that has stood out. 200 runs in the game and good captaincy.
I hate to write off great players, but England should start to tap Cook on the shoulder and ask him some serious questions like, do you still have the hunger. Would you like to have a break and get refreshed. How long do you continue with a great player if he continues to fail?

Test cricket still the BEST

India were behind by 2-0 going into the Trent Bridge Test, but it seems there wasn't too much panic in the dressing room. After sealing an emphatic 203-run victory, that kept India alive in the series, Virat Kohli revealed that the only thing the team was concentrating on was "putting runs on the board" because "the bowlers were doing so well".
"We only spoke about the fact that we were outplayed in only one Test out of the last five overseas, which was at Lord's and there was no need for us to change anything because Birmingham was close," he said at the post-match presentation. "As a batting group, we spoke about how the bowlers are doing so well and if we just stepped up as batsmen we will definitely be on top and that's exactly what we did."
