India v England, 4th Test - India Predicted XI

Team India registered a thumping 8 wicket win over England in the Mohali Test. The win gave them an unassailable 2-0 lead in the 5 match series. Earlier, they had drawn level with England in the Rajkot Test. The Vizag Test saw them come up with an improved performance. Talking specifically about the Mohali Test, the team came up with an all-round clinical display.

Now the action moves to Mumbai for the fourth Test. Both teams have got a decent break between matches to come afresh for the next game. While the Indian think tank is having a problem of a surplus, the English team is battling to figure out a settled eleven. India have received some boost in the form of the return of KL Rahul back to fitness.

Wicket-keeper Wriddhiman Saha is yet to recover from the injury. Considering from England point of view, they roped in Keaton Jennings and Liam Dawson as replacements for Haseeb Hameed and Zafar Ansari. Their pace bowler Stuart Broad is not very fit either at the moment. England have a lot to work with right now, but India might not tinker much with their playing eleven.

Here is the predicted XI for the Indian team for the fourth Test:

1. Murali Vijay

Murali Vijay was a clear disappointment in the last Test. Being the senior opener in the playing eleven, a lot was expected from him. He had a promising start to the series when he scored a magnificent ton at Rajkot. However, he has failed to get big runs since then.

However, he is still expected to retain his place in the playing eleven. He remains to be one constant opener in the team. Team India head coach Anil Kumble also recently said that a big knock is just around the corner for the Tamil Nadu batsman.
