England vs India: 3 Surprises that can unfurl ahead of the 5th Test

#2 Sam Curran opens the innings

The Young Rockstar

This series has been difficult for openers in general, but the pair of Alastair Cook and Keaton Jennings have found it more difficult than their counterparts. England has struggled to find a permanent opening partner for Cook, but off late his form has also taken a slump, which has made many to believe that the opening combination will be changed in the final match.

Introduction of Sam Curran to the opening spot can be a gamble which could pay really well. Keaton Jennings has been struggling in literally every innings that he has played in this Test series. Curran has shown that he is good while playing the moving ball and has a good head at such a young age. This can well be a masterstroke.
