India vs England – 4th Test Betting Tips

High-flying India will face demoralized England in the fourth Test, starting from Thursday in Ahmedabad.

The home team are having an unassailable 2-1 lead in the four-match series, courtesy back-to-back wins in the second and third match and they will be hoping to secure the trophy and their place in the final of the International Cricket Council (ICC) World Test Championship against New Zealand which will be organized at the Lord’s Cricket Ground in the summer.

On the other hand, England will be bitterly disappointed after going behind in the series despite taking a 1-0 lead with a comprehensive victory in the opening game.

Since they cannot win the series, the English team are out of the race to secure a spot in the final of the inaugural edition of the ICC World Test Championship, but they will be eager to finish the five-day contests on a high.

India Form and Team news:

Since team India have been performing remarkably well in the last two Tests, they are expected to not make too many changes in the playing XI.

However, pacer Jasprit Bumrah has been already ruled out of the fourth Test and he is likely to be replaced by Umesh Yadav.

In the batting department, the Men in Blue will be relying on the likes of captain Virat Kohli, his deputy Ajinkya Rahane, star opening batsman Rohit Sharma and veteran Cheteshwar Pujara to score bulk of the runs and put the opposition under pressure.

On the bowling front, the onus will be once again on the likes of off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin and left-arm spinner Axar Patel to dismantle the visitors batting lineup on a turning pitch.

England Form and Team news:

England will come in the contest low on confidence after suffering a defeat in the third Test inside just two days.

Therefore, it won’t come as a surprise if the visitors will end up making a lot of changes in the playing XI. James Anderson and Stuart Broad might be rested as Chris Woakes and Dominic Bess might come into the XI for this series finale.

English team management has come under criticism after picking just one out-and-out spinner in the third Test where the pitch was a rank-turner.

In the batting department, the team will be once again relying on the likes of captain Joe Root, star all-rounder Ben Stokes and opening batsman Dom Sibley to score bulk of the runs and give bowlers something to bowl with.

On the bowling front, the onus will be once again on the likes of left-arm spinner Jack Leach and right-arm off-spinner Dom Bess to produce timely breakthroughs and get the better of the home team’s batting lineup.
