Lloyd found Shubman Gill’s approach to bewildering field, especially when England was five years old wick For only 84 years. Instead of breaking England, the Indian Pattern Shubman Gill played it safe, pushing the campers, and the pressure and the movement went back spectacularly on the 3rd.

David Lloyd wrote in his column for The Daily Mail: “The broken train. This game went quickly from Shubman Gill. With 587 on the shore, I found it strange that the field was so defensive with only two searches. Regardless of the Brook and Smith counter, this was the time to keep the pressure. With three searches there, at least it would have thought twice because they went there.

They were looking at the barrel, and then a magnificent counterattack came out, and then, from the place, the queue was exploited by Siraj, with Smith left high and dry in 184. Surely someone could have stayed with him.
David Lloyd blames England’s collapse in the “mental disintegration”
On the other hand, the former ICC party referee has blamed the “mental disintegration” of the double collapse of England in the Edgbaston test. He said that the batters were drained after spending two long days in the field, which caused errors and confusion in the fold.
Lloyd signed by saying, “Mental fatigue played a role because the batters’ minds were searched after two days in the field. It is a large part of the test cricket. The Australians called it mental disintegration. Apart from Brook and Smith, they played excellently, England went mentally.”
