Batting great Sunil Gavaskar has called for a "post-mortem" into India Test cricket after their aura of home invincibility was blown away by a second series whitewash in 12 months.
Jadeja, who came in at 71-5 and saw India slump to 112-8 at lunch, chose to protect Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj from England's attack by scoring singles to keep the strike and controlling his attacking instincts.
Gavaskar, in a recent interview, suggested that even India's second-string team could challenge Pakistan’s current squad, citing their lack of intent and bench strength.
"I have always said, if you want only slim guys, then you should go to a modelling competition and pick all the models. It's not about that," Gavaskar told India Today.
West Indies legend Sir Vivian Richards said that the International Cricket Council (ICC) will have to provide answers to clarify the confusion behind the entanglement of the Champions Trophy schedule that forced both Australia and South Africa to travel to Dubai to know who they will face in the semifinals of the tournament.
The former India opener also highlighted that Bangladesh boast "promising new players" capable of making a significant impact, warning that no side can afford to be complacent against the Tigers.

"The decision taken by Mumbai Indians is for the benefit of their team," Gavaskar told Star Sports

“The footwork is palpably slow to start with, and that makes him vulnerable to the incoming delivery. If he can rediscover the 2019 form, then India will be assured of a very good start to their campaign,” Gavaskar said.
