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

#1 India might once again play the same eleven

England v India: Specsavers 4th Test - Day One
India looked settled even at loss

The Indian team under the leadership of Virat Kohli has not played with the same eleven for two consecutive Test matches. This has been mainly due to some injury scares and also India playing with the horses-for-courses policy, but for the first time, they have sported the same eleven in the 3rd and 4th matches of this 5-match series.

Even though India lost the match, they were still more stable than they have ever been before. Their pace attack has been the biggest talking point of this series. The only person going through with a bad patch is KL Rahul, but he has been the standout in the slip cordon. Ashwin had poor Test match as he could not do enough with the ball in a pitch that suited him, but Ashwin is champion player, and one can expect him to come good for the final Test.
