England has been the only team in the last 10 years that has beaten India in a Test series in their own backyard. This record itself proves how difficult it is for a visiting team to come to India and return triumphant.

The star-studded Indian batting line-up including the likes of Virat Kohli, Cheteshwar Pujara, and Ajinkya Rahane knows exactly how to play on the Indian pitches. Especially against Kohli, the English bowlers have consistently bowled to his strengths and have gone for plenty.

Though Rahane hasn’t had a particularly great series so far but if the English bowlers keep on bowling to his strengths then a big knock is not far away. Pujara has been in scintillating form scoring two centuries in the series so far. The visitors have found it really difficult to cope with his style of play. Despite being a predominantly defensive player, Pujara has scored brisk centuries in the series so far and has scored at a faster rate than his captain and Rahane.

So as it stands the England bowlers have to pull up their socks if they have any chance of registering a surprise comeback in the series.
