England v India, Trent Bridge Test - 4th Day – Second Session Recap
India was in deep trouble and had lost six wickets for a mere 68 runs on the board at tea, on Day 4 of the second Test against England, at Trent Bridge, Nottingham, on August 1, 2011.
The Men in Blue started the second session of play at eight runs for the loss of one wicket as they lost their premier batsman, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/R-Dravid-c2229, just before the lunch break.
The Indian batting lineup, which is considered as one of the best in the world, looked clueless against the spirited England attack and the top and the middle order batsmen failed to cope with the home team’s bowlers.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/JM-Anderson-c1705 right after the lunch break, which destroyed the Indian hopes of challenging England’s total in the last innings of the match.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/TT-Bresnan-c2711, who played this match because of an injury to Chris Tremlett, proved that he is a world class operator and the English selectors cannot afford to sideline a player, who is equally effective in all the departments of the game.
He used the short ball to great effect and rattled the Indian batsmen, who were exposed badly against short pitched deliveries.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Abhinav-Mukund-c41758 were dismissed on short pitch deliveries, and their dismissals were embarassing for world-class players.
The Indian captain, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/MS-Dhoni-c2028, left a straight ball upfront and was trapped in front of the wickets. Bresnan picked up four out of the five wickets which fell in the session. It was an extra-ordinary performance by the all-rounder,
who had also made a huge contribution to the English team with the bat in the second innings.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Harbhajan-Singh-c61453 were on the crease, when tea was called on the fourth day.
It is highly unlikely that http://www.senore.com/Cricket/ICC-World-Cup-2011-c100625 Test Rankings after the fourth Test, at the Oval.
