What to Expect from the 2nd Test at Edgbaston

The second Test at Edgbaston will be a tough match, which England will enter with a lot of confidence, having won an exciting game at Headingley. They have an aggressive approach with coach Brendon McCullum that has kept on straining the opposition, and playing in Birmingham promises a frenzied environment.

Batters such as Ben Duckett and Joe Root will be keen to capitalise on their form in this Test, whereas the bowling attack, making bowling spearheaded by James Anderson and Ollie Robinson, will be happy to exploit the swing-friendly nature of Edgbaston.

On the contrary, India will be hoping to get back on track and tie the series. Due to worries related to fielding and stability in the middle order, the visiting team may want to change some of their tactics, including the possibility of shuffling their fast-bowling department.

How much Jasprit Bumrah would be used would be strictly watched, and the team can introduce new talent such as Mukesh Kumar or Akash Deep. Captain Rohit Sharma will wish that the top order performed better, and Rishabh Pant may again come in handy with his counter-attacking game.

By nature, the conditions at Edgbaston generally provide support to seamers in the initial days of the match, particularly on days when there is cloud cover. This may, however, change as the game goes on, as batting normally becomes easy but may possibly be followed by spin on the fourth and fifth days.

Both teams would put out well-balanced XIs with three frontline fast bowlers and a spinner, going by the final pitch report. With an encouraging beginning by England and a desire to rebound by India, the fans can anticipate a similar tense five-day battle where the flow of moment of the match swings back and forth, and individual performance becomes phenomenal.
