It’s been a disastrous year so far for England. Having been thrashed 5-0 by Australia in the Ashes in January, they then lost to Sri Lanka in England for the first time ever and fell 1-0 behind in their current series against India in what was shaping as a complete collapse.
But something strange happened in last week’s Third Test – England suddenly remembered how to play again and leveled the series with a thumping 266-run win. The result changes the entire complexion of this Fourth Test and with their confidence restored we expect England to surge again this week.
Despite having won the Second Test a few weeks back, India has historically been an awful Test team away from home and it will take a miracle for them to turn it all around now.
