3 big mistakes: Let us know about the three big mistakes that Team India has made in the Manchester Test and it needs to improve it in the Oval Test.
3 3 big mistakes: Bowling attack did not show strength
In this match, the bowling of the Indian team looked very pale compared to the last three Tests. Experienced bowlers like Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammad Siraj and Ravindra Jadeja could not escape the thrashing. In front of the English batsmen, the bowling attack of the Indian team looked like the attack of a domestic team. Bumrah conceded 100 runs in an innings for the first time in his Test career. This shows how the team’s bowling was. Before the Manchester Test, Team India’s bowlers need to work on their skills. If this trend continues in the Oval Test, then the team will lose the series.
2 Mistake in choosing the playing-11
In the Manchester Test, cricket experts as well as fans were unhappy with Team India’s playing-11. No one understood the reason why Anshul Kamboj was included in the team. At the same time, questions were also raised on the decision to ignore Kuldeep Yadav for the fourth consecutive match. Prasidh Krishna can also be given a chance in place of Shardul Thakur.
1 Shubman Gill disappointed again as captain
Great knock under pressure as a Captain, he has proven himself in this series with the bat but for me I am still not in favour of his captaincy especially in this series because of lack of experience of captaincy that too in English condition, that's the reason also India #Gill pic.twitter.com/ZguyePx8fV

Shubman Gill may have been able to consistently leave his mark as a batsman in the series. But his decisions as a captain are not understandable. The kind of fielding Gill sets seems completely ineffective. He often has trouble understanding when to bring which bowler on attack. Gill still needs to learn a lot as a captain.
