#4 Slip Catching
This is one of the major aspects that was missing in the first two Tests, where India lost both the encounters. But the third Test in Nottingham was simply fantastic for India as almost every catch was gobbled up by the slip fielders (read KL Rahul).
Rishabh Pant was very good behind the stumps as he claimed 7 catches, which is an Indian record for a wicketkeeper. KL Rahul was highly impressive as he took all the catches that came his way. Even half-chances were converted into wickets, which included that of Joe Root's dismissal in the first innings.
If KL Rahul's batting was something to be cherished, his slip catching is something that will be talked about, for a long time to come. If the slip fielders can be as impressive as they were in Nottingham, India would surely level the series at Southampton.
