Former Sri Lanka skipper, Kumar Sanagkkarra believes that Indian batsmen have done a good homework between the second and the third Test. They have adjusted well with the conditions at Trent bridge and are playing in an absolutely steady manner so that they don't repeat the same mistakes again and hold the game in their favour. 

“conditions at Trent bridge were not as taxing, the pitch is a bit more easy-paced, but the Indian batsmen adjusted extremely well to facing the English bowlers after the first couple of Tests. Batsmen tightened up their techniques with the way they defended the ball , they played it a lot later than before and left it better than before. They also drove the ball with more extension rather than flourish and put the bad deliveries away,” Sangakkara said to Skysports.

“you must give credit to the work they did between Lords and here, allowing India to build partnerships, particularly Virat Kohli and Ajinkya Rahane’s 159  run stand for the fourth wicket. I think Rahane has a good technique, he is very compact and simple in his set up. He has all the shots and also a strong mind to be able to put bad patch behind him and focus on what works on the day. He had snatching Tests at Edgbaston and Lord's but has now come out and shown what he is capable of,” Sangakkara concluded.
