6 things which can help India make a comeback in the Test series

England v India: Specsavers 1st Test - Day Two

5) 3 pacers and 1 spinner is the right combination

England v India: Specsavers 1st Test - Day One
Umesh Yadav should be back for the 3rd Test

India should go in with the three pace attack and Ashwin can shoulder the spinner role. This combination worked for India in the first Test. In the seaming conditions, one needs to strengthen their pace department. Umesh Yadav should be back in the side. He brings in an extra yard of pace which can disturb even set batsmen. The spinner will have to play the holding role as the pitches would rarely offer any turn.

The present Indian bowling attack is capable of taking 20 wickets. They had showcased that in the Edgbaston Test and there is no reason why they cannot do that again. Indian batsmen need to step up and score heavily so that their bowlers have enough runs to defend.
