India Must Rethink How They Play Fast Bowling, Says Monty Panesar, As England Win Lord’s Test
Old Trafford Test: Former England spinner Monty Panesar believes India need to revisit their approach to fast bowling after falling to a narrow 22-run defeat in a thrilling third Test at Lord’s here on Monday. The result allowed England to lead the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy series 2-1 in front of a roaring home crowd.
Panesar’s assessment came after a gripping final day where England bowled India out for 170, defending 193 with everything they had. Shoaib Bashir, bowling with a broken finger, delivered the final blow by bowling Mohammed Siraj in bizarre fashion. Siraj slumped over his bat in despair, evoking memories of James Neesham’s heartbreak at the same ground in the 2019 World Cup final.
“Well, since India lost this Test match, I think they will have to think about how to play fast bowling,” Panesar told IANS after the game. “We have just seen the uneven bounce of the pitch. The Indian batsmen were playing with a little bit of hesitation.”
