The end of the Mohali test match raised some questions for the English Captain Alastair Cook. Some asked about the English batting card which is suffering the wrath of Indian international top class spinners. Some did prefer that the captain must have understood the balance of the side before going on to play the match. The absence of Stuart Broad did bring some hopeless conditions for Cook, but the most disappointment for the English captain was the analyses on the behaviour of the Mohali pitch. It was no issue that England would go with 4 pacers in the Mohali test due to its moisture and roughness around the cool weather.
Although, The English leading Trump Card didn't succeed in form of James Anderson in the whole test match, the added pressure made Alastair Appear accept that the English analytics were failed to recognise the actual pitch conditions in the concern regarding the Mohali cricket ground.
He admitted that there was certainly something variable for spin and pace both, which they didn’t count to balance accordingly. However, Adil Rashid and Ben Stoke's performance with the ball did impress him as he mentioned both in the presentation chat after an end of the match, But the most factor was the way the other English ballers were not as accurate as Indian pacers and spinners which cause a separate state for English captain. In this way, there were certain variations on the pitch which English team didn't count out.
Alistair has mentioned that there was certain mismanagement according to the conditions they had anticipated thus they needed to concern even after winning the toss that how they would manage to deal out when India came to bat, which they didn't execute to the proper level. All in all, Now England has lost 2 matches in the row in this series, they would surely prepare for Mumbai, but what would be their new tactics would be great to look forward at large...
