Shubman Gill and Gautam Gambhir Mistake of Changing Batting Order: The ongoing Lord’s Test between India and England is very exciting and is nearing its final turn. In this match, India got a target of 193 runs to win. In response, the Indian team was seen struggling badly and lost its 7 wickets at just 82. At the beginning of the fifth day, three wickets of India fell one after the other. During this time, captain Shubman Gill and Gautam Gambhir, sitting in the dressing room of India, probably made a big mistake regarding the batting order.

Shubman Gill: What was that big mistake?
Actually, when KL Rahul was out, Nitish Reddy should have come according to the batting order. In the first innings also, he came to bat before Washington Sundar. If he had come at that time, there would have been a right and left combination, which could have disturbed the rhythm of the bowler. But without thinking, perhaps it was decided to send Washington before Reddy.

The result was that Sundar fell prey to Jofra Archer without even opening his account. This mistake can become a big reason for the defeat of the Indian team. It is worth noting that in the first innings also, the pair of Reddy and Jadeja troubled England and together made a partnership of more than 70 runs. But perhaps the Indian captain and coach have made this big mistake.
Team India in great trouble
The Indian team is looking in great trouble till the time of writing the news. Nitish Reddy and Ravindra Jadeja were on the field as the last pair. India’s score was 94 runs. The team had to score 99 more runs to win. Whereas the England team, which is bowling lethally, needs only three wickets. India’s path from here looks very difficult. If this pair wins the match from here, then it will immortalize its name in history.
