Australia vs India: Rohit Sharma along with 4 other Indian players put into isolation by Cricket Australia.



Australia vs India: Team India?s 5 players were put under precautionary isolation by Cricket Australia on Saturday. Indian vice-captain Rohit Sharma along with Rishabh Pant, Navdeep Saini, Shubman Gill, and Prithvi Shaw have been isolated from the rest of the squads in Melbourne.



Recently a piece of news came out that these players have possibly breached the Covid-19 protocols set by Cricket Australia while eating out in the restaurant. However, there is no clarity from either side till now.



Team India and Australia are right now level at 1-1 in the four-game test series. Both the sides are at Melbourne before heading to Sydney for the third test match.



In the video getting viral on social media, Rohit Sharma, Navdeep Saini, SHubman Gill, Prithvi Shaw, and Rishabh Pant were seen eating out in a restaurant.



BCCI initially ruled out any investigation but Cricket Australia later released that the joint probe is on and all the players who were seen out are sent to precautionary isolation.



According to the rules and protocols set by Cricket Australia, the players can go out to eat but maintaining social distance.



<h2>Cricket Australia and BCCI investigating the issue:</h2>



?Both the boards, BCCI and CA are investigating the issue whether the players have breached the bio-secure bubble protocols and rules,? Cricket Australia said in a statement.



?After consulting with medical teams, the mentioned players have been sent to isolation as a precaution. The isolation will include separating from the rest of the Indian and Australian groups while traveling and practicing in the nets,? CA said.



"These players- Rishabh Pant, Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, Prithvi Shaw, and Navdeep Saini will remain in isolation for few days but are allowed to train within strict rules set by Cricket Australia and the Australian government.?

Australia vs India: Navdeep Saini will be a no-brainer choice if you go by cricketing logic: Ashish Nehra.



Australia vs India: The former left-arm Indian pacer Ashish Nehra says Navdeep Saini is going to be the first choice third seamer for India in the upcoming test. Nehra said Saini is a no-brainer pick for the third test match at Sydney Cricket Ground if you go by pure cricketing logic.



Both the side have been in woes by a string of injuries. Team India has already lost Mohammad Shami and Umesh Yadav due to wrist injury and calf injury respectively.



However, India still has two other options available apart from Navdeep Saini. Shardul Thakur and T Natarajan are also under the scanner for the third test.



?If you see at the squad composition, Navdeep Saini was the first choice while the other two, Natarajan and Shardul Thakur have been drafted in as a replacement of the injured players,? Nehra told PTI.



?So, if Saini was the first choice while selecting the squad then he must be the first choice pick of the captain and the management. I don?t see any strong reasons why he would not be picked for the third test. If you don?t go by the order then things will not be fair with Saini, to be honest,? Nehra added.



The former pacer also talked about the possible weapons in the test cricket.



<h2>Saini has extra bounce and pace: Ashish Nehra</h2>



?Saini has all the necessary things needed for test cricket. He has that cheeky bounce and extra pace too. He has been tested earlier. I don?t feel Natarajan should be given chance ahead of Saini and Thakur. Natarajan?s biggest weapons are slower balls and yorkers, players do not get trapped in these two balls as they are not trying to hit it.?



?If you want to play with Natarajan, then why didn?t you tested him by placing him in India A, like you tested Mohammad Siraj which turned out to be gold for the visitors,? Nehra added.



?Navdeep Saini has better records than Natarajan, he has featured in many red-ball games and has come up the ranks to get his place in the team. In test cricket, normally batsmen don?t get out on the tempting deliveries, you have to get them out one way or the other.?



Sydney pitches during the limited-over series were more like a flattened one, but in test cricket, it will not be the same. You will require some extra pace to trap the batsmen.



?Navdeep Saini has the ability to pitch up the ball, he has got that extra pace. You will need some pace when the Kukaburah seam will get flattened.?



These all make Navdeep Saini the best choice and according to the order, seniority, the number of games played, and his skills he will be ranked superior to Natarajan right now says, Ashish Nehra.

Australia vs India: Navdeep Saini complaint of Groin pain, taken for the scans.



Australia vs India 4th Test Match: Team India? injury misery compounded as the pacer Navdeep Saini complaint of Groin pain during the day 1 of the fourth test match at Brisbane Gaba. Saini was taken for the scans after he struggled to complete his over.



Navdeep Saini could only bowl 5 balls of his 8th over during the second session before he waled off the ground to go for the further scans. The participation of the pacer is on doubt as the scan reports are still not revealed by the management.



?Navdeep Saini has complained of pain in his groin. He is currently being monitored by the BCCI medical team,? read a short statement from the BCCI on the one-Test-old bowler?s condition.



Team India?s vice-captain Rohit Sharma completed his one left ball.



<h2>Team India's injury misery:</h2>



India has struggled to retain its key players day by day, it will be a huge blow if Saini fails to come out tomorrow morning. Indian had lost most of its important players, Jaspirt Bumrah and Ravichandran Ashwin are two new names in the list.



Ashwin complained of the stiff back during the Sydney Test match. Even though he was in pain but the cricketer showed tough character not to lose wickets and held the wicket from one end.



Jasprit Bumrah who was being monitored regularly also failed to prove himself fit before the match started.



In absence of Saini, India will be left with four bowling options of which Shardul Thakur seems to be leaking runs. Australia is riding strong with Marnus Labuschagne completing his 5th Test ton.



Before the stumps of Day 1 of 4th Test match, Australia in the loss of 5 wickets scored 274 runs. Skipper Tim Paine along with all-rounder Cameron Green has been looking solid at the end.



The series is right now locked at 1-1 after three games off which one game ended in draw.

BCCI adds Navdeep Saini and Jayant Yadav to India?s ODI squad against South Africa: The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) have added pacer Navdeep Saini and spin all-rounder, Jayant Yadav, to the Indian squad for the three matches ODI series against South Africa following the injury reports.



Jayant Yadav has been named cover of all-rounder Washington Sundar, who has been ruled out of the South Africa ODI tour after contracting COVID19. Sunder, earlier, tested covid positive and subsequently ruled out of the tour.



Navdeep Saini, on the other hand, is named as the backup for speedster Mohammad Siraj, who is still recovering after pulling his hamstring. Notably, Siraj picked up a hamstring injury during the second test match and was ruled out of the final test match at Newlands, Cape Town.



If Mohd Siraj fails to prove his fitness until the beginning of the ODI series, Navdeep Saini will be added to the Indian squad.?

Young pacer Navdeep Saini has been in-and-out of the Indian limited-overs side for a while now. Until the year 2020, his brilliant bowling almost cemented his position in the team, however, the lack of consistency and untimely injuries played a spoilsport.?



Saini played his last ODI match against Sri Lanka, last year. He featured in the final ODI match against Sri Lanka but remained wicketless.



Off-spinner? Jayant Yadav will also be making his ODI comeback after five years. He played his only One Day match in 2016. He recently made his Test comeback as well, last year, after a long gap of four years.

3 Players Rajasthan Royals (RR) might release ahead of the IPL 2023: The Tata Indian Premier League (IPL) season fifteen turned out to be a memorable outing for the inaugural IPL champions, Rajasthan Royals (RR). Under the captaincy of Sanju Samson, Rajasthan played their first-ever final match. Also, this was RR?s second final appearance after making one in 2008.



Though RR couldn?t get better of Gujarat Titans (GT) in the final of the IPL 2022, the franchise had several positives ahead of the next season. RR played a good brand of cricket throughout the season and occupied the second position in the points table. Also, they looked very balanced squad with all bases firing together.



However, ahead of the new season, every franchise gets the opportunity to rebuild its squad with some exchange of players. Rajasthan would also look to rejig their squad by releasing a few players and then trying to get their replacements.



In this article, we will take a look at the top 3 players Rajasthan Royals (RR) might release ahead of the IPL 2023.



<h2>3 Players Rajasthan Royals (RR) might release ahead of the IPL 2023:</h2>



<h3>Riyan Parag:</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/06/Riyan-Parag.jpg" alt="IPLT20: Predicting top 5 contenders of the ?Emerging Player of the Season Award? in IPL 2021" class="wp-image-64867" /></figure>



Young all-rounder Riyan Parag once again sustained an ordinary season with the bat in the Indian Premier League. Despite getting immense backing from the franchise, Parag couldn?t produce match-winning efforts for Rajasthan Royals throughout the tournament.



The 20-years old cricketer could only score 183 runs in 17 innings of the Tata Indian Premier League 2022 for RR at an average of 16.64 and a dismal strike rate of 138.64.



The right-handed Assam batter got the support of his franchise throughout the tournament, however, Parag failed to repay the due. Notably, several cricket experts and fans have criticised him for his dreary performance in the cash-rich IPL.



Although releasing Riyan Parag from the squad won?t be a wise option, as he is still young and has the potential to become a potent death weapon, his poor consistency isn?t encouraging either. It will be interesting to see how Rajasthan Royals react to this issue.

<h3>James Neesham:</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/06/Jimmy-Neesham-RR-1.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-90334" /><figcaption>Image: RR/IPL</figcaption></figure>



Rajasthan Royals (RR) purchased the services of all-rounder James Neesham during the player auction 2022 by spending INR 1.5 crores. The kiwi all-rounder wasn?t a regular feature for RR in the playing xi.



Neesham got opportunities to perform in two matches for RR in the IPL 2022, but he couldn?t do justice to his role.



Rajasthan may release him ahead of the IPL 2023 auctions and try to pick a better substitute.



<h3>Navdeep Saini:</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/06/Navdeep-Saini-RR-1.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-90335" /><figcaption>Image: IPLT20</figcaption></figure>



Not long ago, Navdeep Saini's name was counted among India's one of exciting talents, however, the time has taken a turn pretty quickly. After getting an axe from RCB, Saini was picked by Rajasthan Royals (RR) in the auction for INR 2.6 crores.



The right-arm pacer could only feature in two matches for RR in the IPL 2022. In the first match, he returned with figures of 2/36 in four overs, however, the second match turned out disastrous for him as he leaked 36 runs in just three overs.



With RR backing more of Obed McCoy, Trent Boult and Prisidh Krishna in the pace bowling department, it will be tough for Navdeep Saini to stay in the squad.



Rajasthan Royals might release him ahead of the IPL 2023 auctions.

Cheteshwar Pujara, the Indian stalwart is in the form of his life. He is making the English bowlers toil in the County Championship 2022. Pujara scored another double-ton on Wednesday and took his tally to 3 double-hundreds in 7 county games. He is enjoying a dream run. At the beginning of the game, Pujara was also named captain of the Sussex squad in the absence of their regular captain. Navdeep Saini and Washington Sundar were also impressive in their county debuts. Here is an in-depth look:



<h2>Cheteshwar Pujara Plays for Sussex:</h2>



The County Championship is one of the oldest and one of the most prestigious domestic trophies in English cricket. Over the years we have seen many Indians being picked to play county cricket. The legacy started with BS Bedi playing for Northamptonshire. Kapil Dev also went on to play for the same time. Later the legacy was followed. Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly, Yuvraj Singh, Mohammad Kaif, Murali Karthik, and many other renowned Indian cricketers have had successful county stints. Ravichandran Ashwin and Cheteshwar Pujara are two top current Indian players with County stints.&nbsp;



<h2>Cheteshwar Pujara Scores Another 200, 3rd in 7 Games:</h2>



Pujara is in the form of his life. He seems to be in love with the English conditions. He has been making the English bowlers work like laborers in the field. He hasn?t adopted the attacking approach. Just like he makes Josh Hazlewood, Pat Cummins, and Starc run in and bowl overs after overs after overs, he troubled the County bowlers too. Here is a look at the scores of Cheteshwar Pujara in the County Championship 2022:



<figure class="wp-block-table"><table><tbody><tr><td>Match&nbsp;</td><td>Cheteshwar Pujatra Scores</td></tr><tr><td>Sussex VS Derby</td><td>6 &amp; 201*</td></tr><tr><td>Sussex VS Worcester</td><td>109 &amp; 12</td></tr><tr><td>Susse VS Durham</td><td>203</td></tr><tr><td>Sussex VS Middlesex</td><td>16 &amp; 170</td></tr><tr><td>Sussex VS Leicestershire</td><td>3&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>Sussex VS Leicestershire</td><td>46</td></tr><tr><td>Sussex VS Middlesex</td><td>231*</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>



With these scores, Pujara is in top contention for being the highest run-getter in a county season. His availability is not a big question as the Indian national team doesn?t have any big games scheduled in the red-ball format. The current record for most runs goes to Marcus Trescothick who scored 1673 runs in 23 innings from 13 games. Here is a look a the top 5 run-getters with most county runs in one season:



<figure class="wp-block-table"><table><tbody><tr><td>Player</td><td>Runs</td><td>Season</td></tr><tr><td>Marcus Trescothick</td><td>1673 Runs</td><td>2011</td></tr><tr><td>Keaton Jennings</td><td>1548 Runs</td><td>2016</td></tr><tr><td>Adam Lyth</td><td>1509 Runs</td><td>2010</td></tr><tr><td>Kumar Sangakkara</td><td>1491 Runs</td><td>2017</td></tr><tr><td>James Hildreth</td><td>1440 Runs</td><td>2010</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>



<h2>Navdeep Saini And Washington Sundar Bag Fifers on County Debut:</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/07/Navdeep-Saini-min.jpg" alt="Cheteshwar Pujara and Navdeep Saini" class="wp-image-91880" width="782" /><figcaption>From Karnal to Gabba, to England, Saini has come a very long way. IMG SRC: Hindustan Times.</figcaption></figure>



Navdeep Saini and Washington Sundar were also impressed with the ball in hand on their county debut. Navdeep Saini made his debut for Kent against Warwickshire. He grabbed a fifer and courtesy of his heroics Warwickshire is struggling to get to 250.?



Washington Sundar made his county debut for Lancashire. He also grabbed a fifer.?

Cheteshwar Pujara Scores Another Double Ton in County 2022. Saini And Sundar Impress.&nbsp;

cheteshwar-pujara-scores-another-double-ton-in-county-2022-saini-and-sundar-impress

The Indian Cricket Team has many players. The BCCI is always facing the problem of plenty. There are just way too many options to pick from for the Indian cricket team. From 2021 on, more than 10 players have debuted in all formats. We had Prasidh Krishna, Shahbaz Ahmed, Krunal Pandya, Ravi Bishnoi, and many more such players in the ODI format. Surya and Ishan Kishan also debuted last year. With that being said, there are players who have been ignored even after good domestic performances:&nbsp;



<h2>T Natarajan has Performed well for the Indian Cricket Team:&nbsp;</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/12/T-Natarajan-min-1024x768.jpg" alt="Indian Cricket Team" class="wp-image-99105"/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">IMG SRC: Cricket Addictor</figcaption></figure>



T Natarajan set the record for being the only player who debuted in all the 3 formats on a single tour in India?s tour of Australia 2021. Natarajan proved his mettle in that series and the following series when England visited India. He was exceptional. But he only played the Gabba test which was possible as all the other bowlers were injured. His stats are as follows:&nbsp;



<figure class="wp-block-table"><table><tbody><tr><td>Format&nbsp;</td><td>Matches&nbsp;</td><td>Wickets&nbsp;</td><td>Average&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>Test&nbsp;</td><td>1&nbsp;</td><td>3&nbsp;</td><td>39.3&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>ODI&nbsp;</td><td>2&nbsp;</td><td>3&nbsp;</td><td>44.2&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>T20I&nbsp;</td><td>4&nbsp;</td><td>7&nbsp;</td><td>17.6&nbsp;</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>



<h2>Krunal Pandya:&nbsp;</h2>



Krunal Pandya was in tears on his debut game for India in the ODI format. After having a great VJT 2020, he was picked for England?s tour of India in 2021. It was after a long time that we saw two brothers represent the country after a long time. Krunal batted very well in that series. He was poor with the ball as he was taken for runs but with the bat, he was too good. But ever since, he has been neglected. His domestic numbers off-late aren?t exceptional, but when they were he went unnoticed. Here is a look at his stats:&nbsp;



<figure class="wp-block-table"><table><tbody><tr><td>Format&nbsp;</td><td>Matches&nbsp;</td><td>Runs&nbsp;</td><td>Average&nbsp;</td><td>Wickets&nbsp;</td><td>Average&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>T20I&nbsp;</td><td>16&nbsp;</td><td>24.8&nbsp;</td><td>24.8&nbsp;</td><td>15&nbsp;</td><td>36.93&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>ODI&nbsp;</td><td>5&nbsp;</td><td>130&nbsp;</td><td>65&nbsp;</td><td>2&nbsp;</td><td>111.5&nbsp;</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>



<h2>Rahul Tripathi hasn?t got an Opportunity for the Indian Cricket Team:&nbsp;</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/12/Rahul-Tripathi-1024x576.jpg" alt="Indian Cricket Team" class="wp-image-99106"/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">IMG SRC: SRH</figcaption></figure>



Rahul Tripathi has been piling on the performances season after season in the IPL and the SMAT as well. He is the flag bearer of the Maharashtra contingent. He played for the Pune Super Giants in 2016. From that season onwards, he has been continually working. His teammates address him as a ?Team Man?. His work ethic is something that even Gary Kirsten has spoken about. Rahul Tripathi just needs one more impactful season to break that door of the Indian Cricket Team. &nbsp;&nbsp;



<h2>Ravi Bishnoi has been Dropped from the Indian Cricket Team:&nbsp;</h2>



Ravi Bishnoi has been dropped from the Indian Cricket Team. The reason I say this is that the BCCI hasn?t given any update on him. We don?t have an injury update and also do not have an update on whether he has been rested or not. Bishnoi was given multiple opportunities and he excelled in all of them. He looked a little off-color in just the last two games but that is how it generally works. &nbsp;



<h2>Navdeep Saini:&nbsp;</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/12/Navdeep-Saini-min.jpg" alt="Indian Cricket Team" class="wp-image-99107"/></figure>



Navdeep Saini has slipped quickly down the ranks. He was a part of the historic Gabba squad. Since then, he hasn?t got any significant opportunities. He was the spearhead of RCB with his exceptional pace but he was replaced by Mohammed Siraj. It is a competitive sport but since then he hasn?t made a strong comeback. His performances for Delhi in domestic cricket have been good. He is also going to get opportunities with the Rajasthan Royals, so a comeback is on the cards. &nbsp;

Not only this, it is learned that India also won't be playing any warmup matches ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. This is because all the teams will be in Pakistan, and hence, it will be difficult for the International Cricket Council (ICC) to arrange the warmup match. 
The reports added that India team management is happy with the net session ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. This is because they will be playing the three-match ODI series against England, which will begin on 6th February across three venues in India. 
Apart from this, it is reported that the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 won't be having a captain photoshoot because of the different challenges along with the different arrivals of the team. This means that Rohit Sharma won't be travelling to Pakistan for this and will be staying in Dubai with the team. 
The opening ceremony of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 will be held in Lahore. There were talks of having the event in Karachi but the Pakistan Cricket Board decided to host it in Lahore.

India batter Shubman Gill has started his preparations for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The premier batter has returned to nets for the white-ball practice as he was named in the Indian team for the ODI series against England and the ICC tournament. 
Shubman Gill has been under a lot of pressure for his poor outings with the bat, especially in Test cricket. With the emergence of Yashasvi Jaiswal, who delivered consistent performances, there were a lot of questions about the place of Gill, even in the ODIs. 
Several fans and experts also have backed Yashasvi Jaiswal to open the innings for India in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 along with Rohit Sharma. However, amid all this Shubman Gill is making sure that he gives his best to train for the tournament. 
With England ODIs and ICC Champions Trophy 2025 around the corner, Shubman Gill was seen batting in the Punjab Cricket Association Stadium. He was seen batting with the white-ball ahead of the tournament and the video can be seen at the end of the article. 
Shubman Gill looked in golden touch with the bat as he played a pull towards the four before blocking the balls. The batter would be eager to make a strong comeback and reply to all the criticism in style with his performances in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. 
Shubman Gill recently played the Ranji Trophy 2024-25 for Punjab. The batter was the lone warrior for his team as he hit a magnificent century and returned to form after having a poor outing in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25, where he played just three games. 
Shubman Gill would want to carry on his form and help a team win. He has been one of the best batters for India in ODIs. He also has been named as the vice-captain of the team for the tournament and with added responsibility under his belt, a lot will be reliant on him.

Pakistan batter Babar Azam has been in the news for the last few days, especially with the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 around the corner. The batter's name has been discussed a lot related to making him open, especially with no clarity over Saim Ayub. 
Pakistan is the only team that has yet to announce the squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. Since the last few days, he has been in the news as there have been a lot of reports that have suggested that there are chances that he might open the innings for the team. 
However, the fresh reports in Cricket Pakistan have revealed that there are no plans to make Babar Azam open the innings. The reports added that the selection committee has not given the green signal to the development as they feel that batter will be best suited in the middle order. 
<h2>Selectors want a proper opener in the role; Babar Azam to at in middle-order</h2>
The reports claimed that selectors want a proper opener in the role. One of the openers that has been finalized by the management is Fakhar Zaman. However, with Saim Ayub likely to miss out, it is learned that Imam-ul-Haq is also in contention to take the role. 
Babar Azam has been the best batter for Pakistan in ODIs. The batter has mustered truckloads of runs for the team in the format while batting at No.3 and he will be extremely crucial for his team in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, which will be played in Pakistan with India games to be played in India. 
Babar Azam also has been a decent opener as well. He has been opening for the team in T20Is and has achieved massive success as well. He also opened in Test cricket during the recent South Africa series and aced that challenge as well, slamming two half-centuries in two innings. 
But, in white-ball cricket, Babar Azam has been criticised a lot for opening in T20Is. This is because he has failed to maximise the powerplay and has been batting with a low strike rate. It remains to be seen where he will be batting for the team in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.

India assistant coach Ryan Ten Doeschate has provided a massive fitness update about batter Rinku Singh ahead of the fourth IND vs ENG T20I. He mentioned that the left-hander has gained full fitness and will be playing the next match of the five-match T20I series. 
India and England are all set to lock horns with each other in the fourth match of the T20I series. The game is all set to be played at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune on Thursday (30th January). The series is currently at 2-1, with hosts in the lead. 
India has been without the services of Rinku Singh for the last two games of the IND vs ENG series. The left-hander sustained a low back spasm while fielding in the first game and was then ruled out of the next two games of the series as he was under the observation of the BCCI medical team. 
In his place, the India team added Dhruv Jurel to the XI, and the move didn't pay off. The keeper-batter batted lower down the order and struggled to get going in both games, and it potentially cost them the last match of the series. 
<h2>Rinku Singh is fit and ready to play tomorrow - Ryan Ten Doeschate</h2>
However, in what will be a massive boost, Rinku Singh has been declared fit for the next two games. The development was confirmed by assistant coach Ryan Ten Doeschate, who said that the batter hit nets and will be playing. He told reporters. 
"Rinku Singh is fit and ready to play tomorrow. He batted yesterday night" 
Rinku Singh has been India's one of the best batters in the T20Is. His absence was felt in the last two games as well, but now, with him being fit, it is expected that he would walk straight into the XI and is likely to add Dhruv Jurel to the team. 
The fourth IND vs ENG T20I will be a great opportunity for India to to seal the series, but they need to make some corrections before heading into the next IND vs ENG match. 
India faced a disappointing 26-run loss in the last match at Rajkot. Their batting was one of the main reasons behind the loss and they would be hoping to make a strong comeback.
