#2 Over-reliance on Ravichandran Ashwin

Ashwin has picked up wickets in the last few series and has been India’s key player

Every player goes through a tricky patch after a great run. India's lead bowler, Ravichandran Ashwin, has been basking in the glory for a rather long period of time, relishing the turn and bounce on sub-continental wickets.

But if he has an ordinary outing, India may face issues to run through an England batting line-up filled with lefties. Ravindra Jadeja is not a big turner of the ball and Amit Mishra turns the ball into the left-handers, and that should not be much of an issue for them.

Ashwin is the trump card against a left-heavy top order and if he fails, India could have troubles in restricting the attacking English batsmen. Players like Ben Stokes and Johnny Bairstow can take the game away in a session or two with their attacking style of batting.
