India will look to employ themselves better whenever the hosts will probably take to a England in the next Test match at the cricket stadium.

India who seemed almost invincible on the house pitches with the creativity of spinner Ravichandran Ashwin, precision of Ravindra Jadeja and experience of leg-spinner Amit Mishra, were cornered and have been made to play for the draw in the opening Test.

India’s batting line-up failed to rise to the challenge when they had 310 at a run-rate of just more than five.

While Cheteshwar Pujara and Murali Vijay came up in the first innings with a century each, Ajinkya Rahane and Gautam Gambhir failed to react.

However, the Virat side may take things from it as, despite losing early wickets, he managed a draw and combined with Jadeja, stumper Wriddhiman Saha and lower-order batsmen Ashwin shot India.

Opener Lokesh Rahul’s inclusion, who had been sidelined in the Test squad Because of an accident, will also give a big boost to the team confidence as Gambhir, who replaced an injured Shikhar
Dhawan at the New Zealand show, failed to provide the hosts the beginning they desired in the innings from England.

The bowling section, that has been put in its position by Kohli from New Zealand, also seemed as it failed to place the pressure on the opening duo of Haseeb Hameed and Alastair Cook somewhat lost against England.
