That leads nicely to England's pace bowlers. Having opted to pick an unchanged side for Edgbaston, Chris Woakes, Brydon Carse and Josh Tongue have now bowled 82, 77 and 81 overs respectively.
Mohammed Siraj is the only India quick to have bowled more than 62.
All three of England's pacemen struggled at times in Birmingham. Woakes was not as threatening after his new-ball spell while Tongue has been played well by India's top order and was not as successful against the tail as in the first Test.
Change will surely come at Lord's given three days off is little time to recover and Jofra Archer is waiting in the wings.
Could England conceivably leave out all three?
Gus Atkinson, who has not played since May because of a hamstring injury, is back in the squad but it would be a risk to play Atkinson and Archer, who has bowled in two innings in a match once in four years, in the same XI.
Woakes, 36, may need a rest but England like variety in their attack and he averages 12.9 at Lord's – the best of any bowler in Test history.
England would also need to replace his batting at number eight if he is left out – even more so if Carse, an able batter, was also absent at number nine.
Sam Cook is the Woakes replacement in England's squad but does not offer that same batting depth.
Do not rule out bowling all-rounder Jamie Overton adding to his one Test cap, which was earned in 2022.
