Analysis

The Indian batting lineup had the youngsters, including the likes of Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, and Dhruv Jurel play a key role in ensuring that India defeat England in the fourth Test in Ranchi. In the bowling side of things, the spin bowling trio of Ravichandran Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, and Kuldeep Yadav were immense for India in the previous match, picking up the bulk of the opposition wickets.

Meanwhile, the fourth Test in Ranchi saw the England batting superstar Joe Root return to form with yet another hundred against India, while Zak Crawley had key contributions with the bat at the top of the order as well. Shoaib Bashir was the pick of the bowlers for England in the previous match, bagging eight out of 15 wickets, while getting a lot of support from Tom Hartley at the other end.
