  • The one-off Test match will start from 1st July and will be played at Edgbaston

It is almost time for the Indian team to wear their whites again. The only Test match to be played between India and England, which was postponed last year due to the COVID-19 outbreak, will now be played at Edgbaston from July 1, 2022. With the young Indian team who are busy playing against South Africa, the senior team which includes Virat Kohli, Jasprit Bumrah, Rohit SharmaMohammed Shami, KS Bharat, and others are set to fly to the United Kingdom on June 16, 2022.

So far, India are leading 2-1 in the five-match Test series and will either want to win the last match or draw a draw to win the series. But things are not so easy for Team India. In an incident of its kind, when the Virat Kohli-led side faced England in 2021, Joe Root He still had his captain on top of things with Chris Silverwood. This time, when India take the field at Edgbaston, Rohit Sharma will lead them under the supervision of head coach Rahul Dravid. England’s organization has also undergone significant changes, with new captain Ben Stokes appointed as head coach of Brendon McCullum. The kind of cricket that England is playing against the Kiwis in the current Test series will get India’s attention and they will not want to take this English team lightly in any way.

Three days after the end of the New Zealand series, England will face Team India, who have been pretty consistent in their overseas tours over the years. The fact that England have been doing better match practice cannot be denied. No. The 5th place is still a matter of debate for Team India as Rahane is no longer a part of their setup. There have been some reports that KL Rahul Will be ruled out of the series due to injury concerns and this will pave the way for Shubman Gill to open the innings alongside Rohit Sharma. Shubman wants this Test match to go in his favor as he hasn’t done anything significant in foreign soil or home conditions since that historic Gabba Test match.

When India takes the field on July 1, 2022, it will implement all its plans. A brutal competition is to be expected only if the rain doesn’t play a bad game.
