England will look to their recent record in Mumbai to try and get back into the Test series, while India will tell themselves "more of the same and we will be fine" when the two teams clash in the fourth Test match at the Wankhede Stadium from Thursday.
After a not-so-good-but-not-so-bad performance in the first Test in Rajkot, on a surface Virat Kohli was not too happy with, India have found their mojo, winning the next two Test matches quite convincingly.

And those wins have been fashioned without too much help from the pitches, with the home team finding ways to find a way to win sessions and contests even when their backs have been up against the wall. Every time India have looked in trouble, they have found someone ready to take responsibility with the bat or ball.

That is something England have failed to do for a sustained period in this series, which is why they find themselves 2-0 down with two to play. The pitch, a couple of days before the start of the Test match, did not look quite as dry as the one in Mohali, so there could be some hope for England yet.
However, some help from the conditions, or the toss as Alastair Cook found out in Mohali, alone will not do – against such a strong-team-at-home like India, England need to play consistent cricket from ball one to ball 540 every single day. Too many times in this series, England have lost their concentration towards the end of a session, something they cannot afford to do in Mumbai.
The fact that India have plugged away and found ways to break England right at the end is a great testament to the home team's fitness and staying power, and that enthusiasm and let's-keep-going-till-the-end mantra will stand them in good stead in the last two matches as well.
While the toss will be vital, what will be more important is how the first day pans out. If India bat first, they need to make sure they negotiate the early movement from the moisture that is bound to be there and post a big score. If they bowl first, the fast bowlers and the spinners need to take full advantage of whatever help there might be from the pitch. England will, of course, think along the same lines as well.
The wicket is expected to be flat from day one afternoon to the middle of day three, so taking advantage when a chance is presented will be essential. India have done that better in this series, England need to catch up.
