India’s win was based around centuries by Jaiswal (209) and Shubman Gill (104) who became the first pair of Indian batters aged under 25 to score hundreds in the same test since 1996. India continue with an inexperienced, and occasionally impetuous, batting order as Virat Kohli has ruled himself out of the series for personal reasons, and KL Rahul is still injured.
However England’s most experienced batsman has yet to fire off them. Joe Root has managed only 86 runs across four innings so far, perhaps affected by the exceptionally high number of overs he has bowled.
For the first time this series, England are playing two seamers, having recalled Mark Wood in place of off spinner Shoaib Bashir, feeling the pacemen could exploit uneven bounce later on. Skipper Ben Stokes, who becomes the 15th Englishman to play 100 Tests, explained that: "It looks a good wicket. It's a bit platey. Over the five days, those plates might become a little bit uneven. There might be some reverse swing which brings Woody into the game and Jimmy [Anderson] as well."
