IND vs ENG, England Can Play Both Fast Bowlers Anderson And Broad: Captain Joe Root

Captain Joe Root hinted that England might play both pace bowlers James Anderson and Stuart Broad in the pink ball Test that begins on Wednesday here at the Sardar Patel (Gujarat) Stadium in Motera. E

"I am sure there will be opportunities where they will get to play together in the near future and much further down the line as well. The records that they set will be very difficult to surpass."

The England captain also talked about stopping Rishabh Pant who has been scoring well and playing match-turning knocks.

"He (Pant) is a fine player and plays extraordinary shots. He makes it very difficult for some bowlers. But… can we keep him quiet and can we make it difficult for him to really take us on and find ways of either get him off the strike or get him out," said Root.

England has not played a pink-ball Test over the last three years. The previous game they played was back in March 2018 in Auckland against New Zealand.

"We're going to take our time with the limited information we have on this ground and pink-ball cricket. You know, we are going to make sure we give ourselves as much (time) as possible heading into the game before we make a decision," Root added.
