India’s Spinners and Kolkata Smog Trouble England in the First Match

England Blame Indian Smog for Spin Troubles

Harry Brook(Vice captian), said his team had trouble because of how smoky the air was when they played cricket against India in Kolkata. They were trying to strike the ball , but they only got 132 runs and they lost all wickets. Brook got out because he couldn't see the ball moves that India's spin bowlers, such as Varun Chakravarthy, were doing.

These Spin tricks were very important because they made England's players sent back to the pavilion. After the game, he said, I didn't play against Bishnoi, but it's literally hard or difficult to know what Chakravarthy is going to do with the ball. The spinning of the ball were  excellent and made it tough for England.

Harry Brook said, "it was harder to pick the ball due to the smog in Kolkata. Hopefully, the air is a bit clearer in Chennai and we can see the ball a bit easier". (Telegraph). pic.twitter.com/7IozT0UcAJ

It was as though the smoky air was there, but directed inward, yet externally applied which means it felt like it got all inside England's heads, but it was actually the air all around them, making things hard. Since they lost, England's coaches said, we need to change our plan of action, and are making the team a bit different ahead of the next game in Chennai, where they try to move the ball using sticks in Chennai.

They're bringing in Brydon Carse to help them understand the other team out. England's team is trying very hard to win the next match . Now, they have to get used to the manner the ball spins a lot in India and we know  that chennai is famous about spin pitches. And finally Englang is Preparing hard to win the match in Chennai.
