India ka England tour disappointing shuruaat ke saath hua. iske liye IND vs ENG 2nd Test me india kuch changes kar sakti hai.Leeds mein khela gaya pehla Test match India ne 5 wicket se haar diya. Match mein kuch individual performances toh achhi rahi, lekin team ke bowling, fielding aur lower-order batting ne overall performance ko fail kar diya.
Karun Nair – Comeback Ka Mauka Gaya
8 saal baad Test team mein wapas aane wale Karun Nair ke liye yeh match crucial tha. Lekin dono innings mein unka performance disappointing raha – pehli innings mein 0 aur doosri mein sirf 20 runs bana paye. Middle-order mein consistency ke liye India unki jagah IND vs ENG 2nd Test me kisi naye player ko laa sakta hai.
Expected Replacement: Sai Sudharsan ya Sarfaraz Khan
Shardul Thakur – Na Ball Se, Na Bat Se Impact
All-rounder hone ke bawajood Shardul Thakur na batting mein kuch khaas kar paye, na bowling mein. Unhone dono innings mein milakar sirf 5 runs banaye aur 2 hi wickets liye. Sabse badi baat – unhe poore match mein sirf 16 overs hi diye gaye, jo captain Gill ka unpe bharosa na hone ko dikhata hai.
Expected Replacement: Kuldeep Yadav ya seamer Arshdeep Singh
Ravindra Jadeja – Experience Par Performance Bhari Nahi Pada
Jadeja se pitch pe rough hone ke bawajood jyada spin expect ki ja rahi thi. Unhone 11 aur 25* runs ki innings kheli, lekin unka bowling impact weak raha. Unhone sirf 1 wicket liya, aur England ke left-right combination par pressure create nahi kar paaye.
Expected Replacement: Axar Patel ya Kuldeep Yadav (wrist spin option)

Jasprit Bumrah – Form Mein, Lekin Workload Ko Manage Karna Zaroori
Bumrah ne 5 wicket haul lekar first Test mein impact dikhaya. Lekin team management unke workload ko manage karna chahegi, kyunki second aur third Test ke beech sirf 3 din ka gap hai. Lord’s Test (3rd match) ke liye unhe fresh rakhna priority ho sakta hai.
Chance: Rest diya ja sakta hai; Prasidh Krishna ya Mukesh Kumar ke entry ka chance
Rishabh Pant – Series Ka Sabse Reliable Batter
Pant ne dono innings mein centuries lagakar team ki wajah bachaayi. Leeds Test ke sabse consistent player rahe. Unka aggressive approach aur counter-attack England ke bowlers par bhaari pada.
