India's Strongest playing XI for the 2nd test against England

#4 All rounder

Hardik Pandya

Hardik Pandya's knock of 22 in the second innings might not seem brilliant on paper but he fought till the very end. He adjusted his batting technique along with Kohli almost took the team across the line. Even when Kohli was dismissed, Hardik kept India's hopes up. His bowling though was below par in the first innings and he did not bowl in the second innings.
