The hosts are currently 2-1 up in the ICC World Test Championship series but Brook believes England will err on the side of the caution, given India’s bouncebackability.

“Obviously, we’re in a strong position. We’re happy with the way the games have gone so far. They’ve been tense, they’ve been good to watch.

“We’re looking forward to this week. Another different challenge, depending on the surface. But yeah, India are a very strong side.

“They can bounce back at any stage. We saw that after we beat them in Headingley, they came back and had excellent an form at Edgbaston. We’re going to go out there and do our thing.”

The fourth Test between England and India will begin from July 23 at Old Trafford, Manchester.
