As India embarks on its Test series against England, former opener Nick Knight comments on the crucial phase of transition the team finds itself in. Notably absent is Shreyas Iyer, whose experience could have fortified the lineup during this metamorphosis.
Knight, however, places his confidence in the capabilities of players like Kuldeep Yadav, who he considers a potential trump card, and Sai Sudharsan, set to make his debut. K L Rahul is expected to provide vital stability to the relatively inexperienced top-order.
Despite focusing on batting, Knight stresses that India's key to victory lies in their ability to take 20 wickets per match, underscoring the need to balance the lineup without compromising their bowling attack.
