IND vs Eng: The headingley test match being played between India and England is now standing on the scales, which can bow down to any side. The Indian team is batting and has lost 2 wickets at 90. But now, if Team India has to strengthen its side in this match, then some special things have to be done on the fourth day, otherwise the match will come out of hand.

Try not to give England batting on the fourth day

If India has to name the fourth day of the first Test match being played against England, then the batsmen should try more and more to try not to be all out on the fourth day. We all know that England is an expert to play Bazball cricket and it does not take much time to reach any goal. In such a situation, if India makes a big score and England gets batting on the 5th day, then they can lose their wickets under pressure.

Give a target of 400+ runs to England at least

If India has to maintain its dominance in the match in the Leeds Test match, then the batsmen will have to try their best to score more than 400 runs on the board.

If we look at the figures, the most successful Test chase in the headingley is 404 runs which Australia achieved against England in 1948, in which Don Bradman was unbeaten on 173 runs. At the same time, the second Highest Run Chase Stokes captained England team in 2019 Ashes, then he chased a successful run against New Zealand in 2022 and 251 against Australia in 2023.

KL Rahul and Gill will have to handle the first session

Team India’s score is currently 90/2 and leads to 96 runs. KL Rahul is unbeaten on 47 (75) runs from one end, while captain Shubman Gill 6 (10) from the other end is unbeaten. In such a situation, it will be expected that these two batsmen do not lose their wicket in the first session, because the first session of any day is the most cruel, which can turn the match.
