IND vs Eng | ‘People will ask if Shubman Gill trusts his attack’: Former England captain in India’s announcement. Cricket news
New Delhi: Former England captain Nasir Hussain believes that India is strongly under pressure to win 5 of the second Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy Test in Edgbaston. With the delay in rain at the beginning of the game and India requires seven more wickets to level the series, everyone’s eyes are on whether Shubman Gill’s side can seal the deal.India had reduced England to 72/3 by stumps in 4 days after setting a target of 608 runs, but the last day rains have complicated their work.On the broadcast of Sky Sports, Hussain said, “There is a lot of pressure on India. You should think a lot about England.”“If they get a draw, people will ask why they bat for so long, people will ask if Gill trusts his attack. I think he trusts his attack but will show today whether he can get those seven wickets or not.”Hussain also said that England, once they resume their innings, should continue to play with delays after rain.“I think the meditation is on seven wickets (choosing) instead of the target, but also how to play England. He has rarely been in this position and openly said that he does not play for a draw.”

Do you think that the last day of the test is under more pressure?
“I think they need positive intentions and not to go into their shell. You don’t just want to block them, but you don’t want negligence. This series is about winning, not only one test.”Meanwhile, former England cricketer Mark Bachar suggested that if the rain helps England secure a draw, it should be seen as a moral victory for the Ben Stokes team.“I don’t think it takes a change of attitude for England (to consider a draw). You can see when you avoid this game as a win in yourself.”
“England talks about being in the entertainment business – well, we can all recreational draws, people and three overs left on the edges of their seats with a wicket need, or whatever can happen. Is the fans more entertained by your nails at the back of the day or at the back of the day?”“I think we know the answer. And I think it would have a large -scale wing in this team’s cap. If they were able to do so.
