For India To Come Off England Tour By Levelling The Series Is Just Unbelievable, Says Deep Dasgupta
World Test Championship: With stalwarts Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma stepping away from Tests, expectations were understandably cautious around how a young Indian side led by Shubman Gill would handle the challenge of a five-match series in England.
Only eight members of the squad had previously played Tests in England. Adding to the uncertainty was India’s pre-decided plan to field Jasprit Bumrah in just three of the five Tests - a move that raised questions about the bowling unit’s ability to take 20 wickets consistently.
Compounding the pressure was India’s recent form, with Test series defeats at home to New Zealand and away in Australia. But after 25 days of compelling cricket, India staged a spirited comeback to draw the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy series 2-2. Former India wicketkeeper-batter Deep Dasgupta spoke exclusively to IANS about the drawn series, Gill’s roles as batter and captain, and what lies ahead for a team clearly in transition.
