Former Indian star pacer Zaheer Khan highlighted the hosts' batting debility in the ongoing test series against England. He also mentioned that it was only because of the individual brilliance of Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill that India won the second test match.

The team's batting lineup did not fire as a collective unit as the hosts rode on Jaiswal's double century in the first essay and Gill's century in the second innings. Also, the exceptional show put on by Jasprit Bumrah helped India to secure a 106-run win.
