New Delhi: Former Captain of England Nasser Hussain believes that pressure is firm in India to promote the 5th day of the second test of Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy in Edgbaston. When the rain delayed the beginning of the game and India, which needs seven other goals to equalize the series, all eyes are whether the SHUBMAN GILLOVA side can seal the agreement.India reduced England to 72/3 stumps in the 4th day after setting a 608-running goal, but the rain on the last day complicated their task.

“There is a lot of pressure on India. You have to think it is a lot of England to set 600,” Hussain said on Sky Sports.“If they get a draw, people ask why they have been burning for so long, people ask if Gill trusts his attack. I think he trusts his attack but today shows whether they can get these seven goals or not.”

Hussain also stressed that England, as soon as it renews its shifts after the rain delay, must continue to play with the intention.“I think it focuses on the (selection) of seven goals rather than the target, but also on how England plays. In this situation they were very rare and openly stated that they are not playing for draws.”

Who do you think is on the last day of the test under greater pressure?
“I think they need a positive intention and do not go to their shell. You don’t want to just block, but you don’t want to be ruthless. It’s about winning the series, not just a one -time test.”Meanwhile, former English cricket Mark Butcher suggested that if Rain helps England to ensure a draw, it should be considered a moral victory for Ben Stokes.“I don’t think it requires too much shift for England (to think about the draw). You could look at the escape from this game as a victory in itself.”

“England talks about being in the entertainment industry – well, we all remember fun draws, people on the edges of their seats with the need for a goal and three crossed, or anything that could be.“I think we know the answer. And I think it would be a massive feathers in the cap of this team if they did it. I also think all the motivation of England was needed by India, which was not the most announced at night.
