Visakhapatnam;
England is hoping that they will continue the good run and take a lead in the five match test series, when the two teams meet at Visakhapatnam for the second test match.
The English cricket team led by Alistair Cook is keen on taking the advantage from the Rajkot test performance. The Barmy army is well settled with the brilliant performances of their top order and as well as middle order batsmans. The openers are in fine form with both cook registering his 30th test hundred in the first test and Hameed is gaining confidence with his brilliant performance of 78 in the second innings. Always dependable Joe Root is also in prime form, with another century under his belt along with the performance of allrounders Moeen Ali and . Cook also stated that bowler chris woakes is suffering from knee nigle, thus clearing the way for the spearhead bowler james Anderson, who is returning from shoulder injury.
Having drawn the Rajkot test and tackling the Indian spinners brilliantly, the english team's confidence is sky high. On the other hand, India is slightly low of confidence with their performance in Rajkot test. They have hardly managed to draw the test under the performance of skipper virat Kohli. A fit KL Rahul might open the innings with Murali Vijay, and Gambhir might well be in the dressing room. Though given opportunities, Gambhir was not at his best, with the score of 29 in the first test. Rest of the batting order will be the same Pujara at No.3 followed by skipper virat , Rahane , Aswin, and the keeper Saha with the lower order to follow.
The bowling department comprises with the lethal pair of Aswin, Jadeja, Misra followed by the fast bowlers shami and umesh/Ishant. A fit again Ishat is raring to go after a long lay off due to an injury.
This is the first time Visakhapatnam Dr.Y.S.Raja sekhara Reddy stadium is hosting a test match.
