India vs England: Positives and Negatives for Team India from first test

New Delhi: Team India and England both were in winning position in the first Investec test at Trent Bridge, but unfortunately it ended with a draw after England dominated the last two days. Astonishing performances



Positive: New look bowling line up


With only Ishant Sharma having the experience of bowling in England pitches, everyone had the same concern that how much England's batting can pummel Indian pacers? But with Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Mohammad Shami, he took the full advantage of not so good bowling conditions. All the 10 England wickets were shared by this trio. Bhuvi's five were accompanied by Ishant's three and Shami's two. Dhoni would be in a big dilemma at Lord's that whom he should exclude to bring in Ashwin. However, the only thing of concern is the consistency. From 202/7 England still managed to score 496 in the first innings.
