England have announced a 14-member squad for the IND vs ENG 1st Test, which begins June 20 at Headingley, Leeds. England will go with a depleted pace battery as Jofra Archer, Mark Wood and Gus Atkinson all miss out with injuries. While England Test captain Ben Stokes has returned to bowling action, England’s pace attack could struggle against an inexperienced but flamboyant India batting.
With Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma retiring from Tests, Shubman Gill will lead India. The most experienced players in the squad are Ravindra Jadeja, KL Rahul and Karun Nair, who will return to India Test Playing XI after 9 years. Jasprit Bumrah will lead India’s bowling attack. India haven’t won a Test series in England since 2007. The IND vs ENG Test series will also mark the beginning ofthe WTC 2025-27 cycle.
