India vs England Test: Before the 5 Test series between India and England, the teams of India A and England Lions came face to face in the unique Test match. During this, many players of the senior Indian team landed on the field and they confirmed their preparations. Among them, KL Rahul, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Karun Nair, Shardul Thakur and Abhimanyu Ishwar were seen playing during this time. Some of them showed a great game and some players were very poor.
Some fail and some superhit
Players like Rahul, Nair, Sarfaraz Khan, Dhruv Jurae showed their best form. At the same time, other players like Yashasvi Jaiswal could not leave the impression. India will be forced to think a lot in the bowling unit. In this, Shardul Thakur and Nitish Kumar Reddy performed disappointing. However, Anshul Kamboj impressed many people with his performance.
Amazing of Kamboj and Khalil
In terms of bowling, Anshul Kamboj was probably a discovery of these two matches for India. He was the most disciplined bowler in two matches. He took 5 wickets and scored a half -century. Left -arm Khalil Ahmed played only one match in the series. During this, the English batsmen were fiercely harassed. Khalil took 4 wickets in that match. He is a player who can make a place in the senior Indian team during the 5 -match series.

Rahul and Nair’s bat run
KL Rahul was the most effective in the series. He scored 167 runs in just two innings. He will be important for the success of Team India on the England tour. On the other hand, while returning to the Indian team, Karun Nair proved to be so much that he is so high. This batsman scored a double century in the first match. This gave the head coach Gautam Gambhir and his team a strong message of selection. He was the top scoring batsman for India ‘A’ in the series with 259 runs.

Jurae and Sarfaraz affected
Dhruv Jurael finished the series with three half -centuries. He scored a total of 227 runs. Although Rishabh Pant is the number 1 wicketkeeper batsman in the team, it will be difficult to leave Jurlel on the bench for management. On the other hand, domestic cricket veteran Sarfaraz Khan is not a part of the team and made his performance memorable for India ‘A’. He batted only once on the tour, scoring 92 runs.
Shardul and Yashasvi disappointed
Shardul Thakur’s performance was really poor. He took just 2 wickets in two matches. Shardul could not make any impact with the bat and scored 80 runs in three innings. After the best IPL season for Rajasthan Royals, there is a lot of expectations from left -handed opener Yashasvi Jaiswal. He scored only 110 runs in two matches and scored a single half -century. Jaiswal will be expected to forget these two matches and return to the senior team early.

Abhimanyu and Nitish could not play big innings
Abhimanyu Ishwar: India ‘A’ captain Abhimanyu Ishwar wanted to perform better on the tour, but he could score only 167 runs in 4 innings. He scored two half -centuries, but expected a big innings from him. After the tour of Australia, Nitish Kumar Reddy did not make headlines as expected. He scored just 135 runs in 4 innings against England Lions and was able to take only two wickets with the ball.
