"India fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah will miss the fourth Test against England next week after requesting to leave the hosts' squad for personal reasons.
The 27-year-old, who is eighth in the bowling world rankings, took four wickets in first Test of the series before he was rested for the second."

Just a journo. But not quoted were the views of the past batsmen (at least three) in the article that are consistent with that quoted opinion (and must have influenced it).
And the part about slogging your way out of trouble is pretty much obviously true. Along those lines, Warne has always said that he hates talk of "playing your natural game". He (correctly) says it's just an excuse for not playing according the conditions and match situation. |

Root interrupted my train of thought.
Crawley saw Axar take a wicket in his first over.
Must've known how lethal this bowler has been (18 wickets from his first 2 Tests), since his debut.
So, what does he do ? Charges Axar, only to find Siraj at mid off.
Maybe someone should also remind him he was selected as an opener - not a #7 or 8, going for quick runs.

7/170. 2 for Ashwin.
Laurence 31*.
I reckon Root opted to bat first so they wouldn't have to bat last, and not so much because it was considered a good batting deck.
