England and India

Slip catching leaves a lot to be desired

There were 2 drops early on, the first one of Cook’s willow and other from his partner’s. While both of them didn’t cross thirties, a couple of early wickets would’ve really put the visitors on the back foot. Moeen Ali would’ve come early and wouldn’t have enjoyed the freedom of taking risks. The equations could’ve been a whole lot different. In any ways, the slip cordon definitely needs to up their efforts.
