Krunal Pandya starred in the last victory with the tremendous figures of 4-21 which helped to restrict the Lions for 112 runs. Axar Patel and Navdeep Saini also played their part and took two wickets each in that victory. The host were bundled up for 172 runs in the first innings courtesy of Deepak Chahar’s 39 runs. England blew a crucial opportunity to get back in the series and lost by 60 runs in such a low-scoring affair.

India can now afford to make a few changes in the remaining two games. Rishabh Pant, Ricky Bhui, S lad, Himmat Singh, Avesh Khan, Rahul Chahar, Deepak Hooda are set to feature in the squad and replace Ajinkya Rahane, Ishan Kishan, Hanuma Vihari, Shreyas Iyer, S Kaul, Mayank Markande, Krunal Pandya.
