A video of England all-rounder Samit Patel speaking about England’s chances of avoiding the follow-on against India in the first test match at Ahmedabad on Saturday.

England would look to avoid follow-on as they take on India on the third day of the second Test at Ahmedabad. The visitors ended Day Two at 41 for the loss of three wickets on Friday with skipper Alastair Cook and Kevin Pietersen unbeaten on 22 and 6 respectively.
