Former Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) player Brad Haddin picked England to win the last Test between England and India. The fifth Test will start on Thursday, July 31, at The Oval. However, India managed to draw the fourth match in Manchester, leaving the series scoreline 2-1 in favour of England heading into the last game as well.

“I thought England would win the series. I think I said 3-1 or 4-1 at the start. It’s interesting. Momentum changed a bit in that last day. I think England just banked on India rolling over but India found a way through the whole series to keep fighting back. I’m still going to go England,” he said on LiSTNR Sport.

He also opined that it will be interesting to see if the Indian speedster Jasprit Bumrah plays for India or not. At the start of the series, Bumrah was slated to play only 3 matches in the series.

“There was a clear message at the start that he can’t play everything. It’ll be interesting to see how that plays off because he will have two days off. Do you as coach, because Bumrah is standing in the game, do you stick to what the plan was at the start? Or do you walk up to him and ask what do you want to do? The player is never going to say no. You’re not going to say no. They would have a lot of markers but I would expect Bumrah would play,” Brad Haddin concluded.
