England vs India: Ben Stokes’ big decision backfires in second Test at Edgbaston as tourists resting Jasprit Bumrah pays off | Cricket News
Decisions.
A few huges were made in Edgbaston and they were revealed during the draw. England had elected in a bowl and India had chosen to rest the ace of rhythm Jasprit Bumrah.
While these big calls were digested, the mood music was that India was wrong. Ravi Shastri was practically apoplectic for tourists giving Bumrah a break despite the 1-0 game.

Ravi Shastri was surprised by India’s decision to leave aside Jasprit Bumrah in Edgbaston – but that paid at the end
The choice of England has been more widely accepted.
Yes, the bowling alley first on flat bridges is not entirely conventional, but it worked in Headingley – the Stokes team successfully chasing 371, after having conceded more than 450 in the first round in India, because the terrain failed to deteriorate.
On this occasion, Stokes inserted India, was channeled by the media and won. On this occasion, Stokes inserted India, was channeled by the strikers of India and lost.
The test matches, as Stokes was quick to tell us after this glorious Headingley victory, should be tried after five days. He is right.
And the judgment after five days in Birmingham was the great decision of England against the fires and the rich in India.

The captain of India Shubman Gill looted hundreds at each round in Birmingham, notch scores of 269 and 161
India has a deep form and refreshed Bumrah for the Lord
The men of Shubman Gill – thanks in large part to the magnificent 269 of the skipper – stacked nearly 600 in their first heats, then – thanks in large part to the beautiful 161 of the skipper – raised 427-6 declared in their second.
In the two sleeves of England, the hosts fell to 80 (ISH) -5, due to a combination of mind and tired body, coming from the leather hunt for more, and from Bumrah stand -in Akash Greeting deeply with the new ball, shortly, its English rivals, en route to a match match at 10 looks.
Now India is heading for Lord’s for the third test with Deep, well, deep in the spirit of the order of England and a refreshing Bumrah – which will probably replace Prasidh Krishna – imbued with going and ready to weave its magic.
It couldn’t really have worked better for India. For England, this could not have worked much worse. It was a loss of horror. Win the draw, Gubbed by 336 points. Ouch.

The call of stokes to the coin was understandable.
He thought that the field, a bed of feathers for a large part of the match, would be better for the striker and that a rehearsal of Leeds was on. But when he was at the worst, the five days when the cracks emerged and started to help the quisors, England was hitting.
Having already been shaken by the last explosion of the new Deep ball the previous night, he seemed to play. By tea it was.

India rebounds Headingley’s defeat to be discouraged
The rear level of the series and the momentum that had been built in Headingley presented to India.
Things could have easily fleeing tourists after the loss of leeds – a loss that, in truth, has never arrived.
As superb as the prosecution of England of 371, the target would have been more like the 608 that they were fixed in Edgbaston if India had not undergone two horrible frightening collapses and a serious case of teflon fingers on the ground.
Before Edgbaston, they had the problems. Captain under the cosh, Bumrah’s problem – He will only play three tests, so which ones? – And how to balance the XI so that it marks enough races and bags enough counters.
All Gill’s decisions – or the leadership group – have borne fruit.
The statement could have arrived too late but no. The versatile Washington Sundar seemed a choice of songs, but the pieces he provided were essential – important races with branchies and the stobic window on the last day.

Archer will come back – and what are the problems of England?
And now it’s England with problems.
Can Chris Woakes leave after two consecutive tests – and, if not, who beats in n ° 8? To what extent are the problems of the toes of Brydon Carse are concerned?
Is Jofra Archer ready for a return of testing after a single first class match in four years? Is Gus Atkinson completely fit after the conflicts of the hamstrings? Can these two play together at Lord?

Has Ollie Pope has one of those series where he starts well and shrinks? Why did Zak Crawley shone with his position after an excellent second round in Headingley?
Should we worry about the crisis in Stokes’ stick? And can the skipper continue to ask its quisors to work first on docile surfaces?
He undermines things, especially when the speed of the strikers’ sleeves of England means that these questions are soon to return to steam again after having a minimal rest.
This series is very lively after a decision that turned around and the one that has borne fruit.
