IND vs ENG: England will lock horns against India in the 1st Test of the England tour of India, 2023-24 on Thursday, January 24, 2024, at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad.
Team India enters this series with the weight of a recent test series loss to South Africa, an outcome that surely stings. Eager for redemption, they’ll be looking to rebound strongly.
Looking at the team setup, Team India is hit hard before the first test with Virat Kohli’s decision to skip the first two matches due to personal reasons. The BCCI is yet to announce the replacement for him.
Beyond that, Team India’s lineup takes shape with the strong combination of Rohit Sharma and Yashasvi Jaiswal opening, and the middle order featuring the talents of Shubman Gill, Shreyas Iyer, and KL Rahul.
Turning to the spin arsenal, Team India banks on the dependable duo of Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin. The spotlight now shifts to the selection of the third spinner, with Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav in contention.
For the fast-bowling contingent, Team India relies on the dynamic duo of Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj. Adding to this, Bumrah shoulders the responsibility of vice-captain, supporting Rohit Sharma in a leadership capacity.
On the other hand, the England team encounters a major setback with the absence of their emerging batter, Harry Brook, who has opted out of the entire series due to personal reasons, choosing not to travel to India.
In addition, the England team has assembled a fine squad, and have finalized the playing 11 for the first test. Unexpectedly, they have omitted their pace spearhead James Anderson, favouring a lineup skewed towards a formidable spin attack.
