Pick 7:- 1st Innings Opening Partnership - Under 29.5 Runs (1.90)


The fifth and final test of India's tour of England 2021 will be played at Edgbaston Cricket Ground (Birmingham) after a covid outbreak last year. India is leading the series 2-1 and will be looking for a historic series win on English soil if they manage to at least draw the game. England have changed their approach a lot of over the last year and India will be facing a team with different approach. England have swept New Zealand 3-0 before coming into this game. New coach Brendon McCullum and new captain Ben Stokes have appointed a win-at-all cost approach and it is working well for the hosts so far. Their bowling attack is very good and the Anderson-Broad duo can wreak havoc on Indian batters. Indian opener and captain is ruled out of this game after testing positive for Covid-19 and will be replaced by Japsrit Bumrah as captain. Shubmna Gill and Mayank Agarwal are expected to open for India and I think they will lose their first wicket for less than 25 runs. Also , Cheteshwar Pujara can open for India and he has been dismissed 9 time by Anderson for just 14 runs average.

So I'm taking India to lose their first wicket for Under 29.5 runs as my pick.☘️
