IND vs ENG: Gavaskar’s prediction before the start of the series, India will win 4-0

The five-match Test series between India and England is starting from Wednesday (August 4). The first match of this series will be played at Trent Bridge, Nottingham. Cricket experts and veterans are giving their opinion regarding this series. Meanwhile, former Indian captain Sunil Gavaskar has made a big prediction about this series. Gavaskar predicted a 4-0 or 3-1 victory for India in the series. However, he has also said that it will depend on the weather. Talking about the weather, there is a 50 percent chance of rain on the first day of the Nottingham Test between India and England, but it will not affect the game much. However, at the beginning of the day, it will be sunny and the temperature will be around 22 degrees. The wind will also blow at a speed of 15 kmph. In such a situation, swing bowlers can get help from this. In such a situation, the role of the toss will be important. The pitch can be of good help to the fast bowlers in the first few hours.

Sunil Gavaskar said that the Indian team will win the series because England’s team has become weak and its batting is also not strong. He said, “My prediction once again depends on the weather, if it is hot, if the weather is hot for 22 days out of a possible 25, then I think India will win 4-0.”

Gavaskar said, “If weather plays any role, I think India will win 3-1. But I think India will win the series because the England team is weak and their batting is not as strong as we saw in the series against New Zealand. Gavaskar also backed the Indian captain to dominate the battle between veteran pacers James Anderson and Virat Kohli.

 

He said, “The way Kohli adjusted in 2018, the way he was sure of his off-stump, his shot selection was superb. I think James Anderson is three years older as a fast bowler and Virat Kohli is three years more experienced and I think batsmen are at the top of their batting around 28-33-34 years. I believe that Virat Kohli will be the winner in this battle like in 2018.
