Doesn't look damp tbh, even Dobell says so. That's grass which is dying, very little green grass there except towards the edge.

Brown grass. If it is damp, it will help spin as well but will get dried by the time tests starts. Will be a good batting pitch with not much turn.

UK no longer has the heat wave it had until last week. There are rains and temperature dropped by atleast 8-10 degrees since weekend. Also there are substantial cloud covers. Anderson will love it if weather remains the same.

 

However, this will be my playing XI:

 

Dhawan

Vijay

Rahul

Kohli

Rahane

Karthik

Pant/Pandya

Ashwin

Ishant

Umesh

Shami

Day 1 and 2 will be damp  so expect Barbie and ishant as chief tormentors who ever gets to bowl.  Shami can get back to serious form.

damp drying grass.
 
Rain overnight...bit of sun prior to start of test...progressively getting sunnier with 28 as high.
 
So bowl first with 4 seamers and kuldeep.
 
Have Ishant, Umesh and Shami - With Pandya playing along with Kuldeep.
 
Ishant/ Shami and Pandya will get plenty of wickets Kuldeep can chip in. 
 
Win toss win match.
We should Bat first it will quicken up on second day offer more for bowlers.
