Former England Cricketer Nasser Hussain warns England Team to not take India lightly

Former captain Nasser Hussain has warned the England cricket team against complacency ahead of the fourth Test of the series against India which will be played at The Oval on Thursday.

England bounced back from the Lord’s defeat to register an emphatic win by an innings and 76 runs at Headingley and level the 5-match series 1-1.

But Hussain is well-aware of the Indian team’s ability to fight back when the chips are down after the team’s famous triumph in Australia earlier this year and therefore, urged England not to take their foot off the pedal at any cost in the remaining two Tests.

“At Headingley, England swung the ball round corners. Skilful as India’s seam bowlers are they did not swing the ball at all.

“But the last thing England must do now is think they have done the hard work and write India off ahead of Thursday’s fourth Test in south London and the final match at Old Trafford — grounds which should suit their attack better.

“Remember, they were bowled out for 36 by Australia in Adelaide late last year but came back to pull off a famous series win. And after Kohli had gone home, too,” Hussain wrote in his latest column for The Telegraph.

Hussain said Virat Kohli’s never-say-die attitude rubs on to his teammates which is what makes India so dangerous in a situation like this when they are itching to make a strong comeback.

“India do have a lot of strength of character and fight, and central to that is their captain, even though Kohli has looked more like the 2014 version rather than the one who conquered English conditions and England’s attack in 2018,” Hussain wrote further.

The fourth Test between England and India will be played at The Oval in London from September 2.

The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.

In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).

The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.

The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.

Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.

In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.

The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
