England vs India: India's predicted playing XI for the 4th Test

Wicket-keeper: Rishabh Pant

Pant looked good behind the wickets

The bloke who started his career with a six could do no wrong with the gloves and looked healthy with the bat. His energy behind the stumps seemed to rub on to the close-by fielders. However, he should always bat ahead of Pandya, which was not the case in the first innings.

All-Rounders: Pandya, Jadeja/Ashwin

Pandya was exceptional with both bat and ball in the 3rd Test

Hardik Pandya had a memorable game at Trent Bridge. After Michael Holding questioned his credentials as an all-rounder, the Baroda lad answered with both bat and ball. If not for Virat Kohli’s brilliance, Pandya would have pocketed the man-of-the-match award.

Jadeja’s chance to make an impact in the series now rests on Ashwin. India’s premier offie suffered a hip injury during the third Test. Though he bowled and ultimately sealed the game for India in the second innings, he never looked fully fit. If he fails to get the green signal from the doctors before the 3rd Test, then the CSK all-rounder will be his likely replacement.
