Best Combined XI from ENG vs IND Test series
Let us look at the Combined XI from the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy.
Middle-Order: Shubman Gill, Harry Brook, Rishabh Pant (wicketkeeper)
Indian captain Shubman Gill took the No. 4 spot and was undoubtedly the standout batter of the series. Despite initial doubts, he silenced critics with a commanding display, finishing as the leading run-scorer with 754 runs at an average of 75.40, including four centuries. His career-best 269 at Edgbaston was instrumental in levelling the series.
Harry Brook slots in at No. 5, having been England’s Player of the Series. He scored 481 runs at an average of 53.44, with two impactful centuries, one of which, at The Oval, nearly turned the match in England’s favour. His impactful knocks were the reason behind England giving a neck-to-neck fight to the opposition in this enthralling series.
At No. 6, Rishabh Pant not only took the gloves but also added valuable runs. Despite an injury cutting his campaign short, Pant scored 479 runs in seven innings at an average of 68.42. His aggressive batting often shifted momentum in India’s favour, and thus, he would make the upper middle-order complete.
