Do you think England tactics were questionable during the fourth TRAFFORD test?
“So now, Shubman Gill – if he’s at a media conference – I would like to ask: Why did you take 311 leadership? Why not report to 240 or 250 after Stokes got a hundred? He’s too nice a guy.

And now I ask. “ Gavaskara’s fiery words only add to the charged atmosphere between the two sides and the pointed challenge to the approach of England before the Referee series.
