Ind vs Eng: Won't Be Easy For India To Win 3rd Test, Says Former England Spinner

IND vs ENG: Former England spinner Monty Panesar made a big statement about the third Test. Panesar has said that Team India may look like a favorite, but it will not be so easy for them to win here.

IND vs ENG Third Test: The third match of the five-Test series between India and England is scheduled to be played at Headingley from tomorrow. Team India's morale is high after a historic win in the Lord's Test and it will not be easy for England to compete with them. Former England spinner Monty Panesar has made a big statement on the upcoming Ind vs Eng third Test. Panesar said that the Indian team may look like a favorite in this match but, it will not be easy for them to win here.

Panesar said, "This ground at Headingley is the home ground of Joe Root and Jonny Bairstow. India played exceptional cricket at Lord's but, here they will face a tough challenge from England. However, if in this Test, India bowls the same way as it did in the last two Tests, they can easily clinch these matches and the series." 

India will have to get Root out as soon as possible! 

According to Panesar, England captain Joe Root is a huge hurdle in India's victory. "India's team is being considered a favourite in the Headingley Test. However, to win here, they have to get Root out soon." At the same time, Panesar said, "Siraj has proved to be a trump card for the team in this series. Siraj has been able to maintain constant pressure on England batsmen so far in this series. It's getting very difficult for the England batsmen to understand his bowling."

Regarding the on-field clashes in the first two Tests of the series, Panesar said, "The Indian team, led by Virat Kohli, will maintain an aggressive approach against England at Headingley. He will play with this approach."
