Former India cricketer Yograj Singh praised the disciplined batting display by openers KL Rahul and Yashasvi Jaiswal during the morning session at Old Trafford. The pair guided India to 78 without loss across 26 overs before lunch on the opening day. Rahul remained unbeaten on 40 runs from 82 deliveries while Jaiswal contributed 36 runs off 74 balls. Both batsmen demonstrated patience against England's bowling attack despite challenging conditions. Singh highlighted their ability to adapt from limited-overs cricket to Test match requirements.

The veteran cricketer emphasized the importance of batting discipline in five-day cricket formats. He noted improvements in Rahul's technique and Jaiswal's corrected approach to aggressive strokes. Singh advocated for strategic changes within the team structure. He suggested promoting Ravindra Jadeja to higher batting positions and developing lower-order batsmen into all-rounders. The former fast bowler believes consistent practice sessions can transform tail-end batsmen into valuable contributors during overseas tours.
