A look at England's struggles against spin, statistically, ahead of 4th T20I against India
With the series at 2-1 in favour of India, England will have to do well against the Indian spin to have a better chance at squaring the series. So far in the series, 18 out of 28 England wickets have fallen to spin, as per Wisden. Harry Brook, hailed as the future superstar and mainstay of England Test batting, has looked terrible against spin, getting dismissed by Varun twice and Ravi once. Brendon McCullum, who took over as white-ball coach starting with this series, has not been able to showcase the attacking brand of cricket that earned him success with the Test side as a coach.
