In this series against India, England failed to find a proper balance as they with an extra bowling option in the first two matches. However, they faced batting collapses in both matches. Then, in the third match, they went with an extra batter in the form of Phil Salt as Parkinson was excluded from the team.
The move got paid as they scored more than 200 and also won the match. But, still, their two spinners, Moeen Ali and Liam Livingstone went for an economy of 15.50 and 18 respectively.
