IND vs ENG Dream11 Match Prediction: The first match is scheduled to be played at Edgbaston, Birmingham, on July 2, 2025, with a start time of 3:30 PM IST.
Team Preview of India vs England 2nd Test Match Prediction 2025
After India lost their 1st test against the well-balanced England side by five wickets, they will now move into a crucial 2nd test match at Edgbaston, Birmingham, in which we can see a few changes in the Indian bowling lineup because they failed to defend the 350+ runs on the last day of the Test Match.
Many news channels and cricket fans are posting things about how Bumrah will miss the match after Gautam Gambhir said that Bumrah will play only three test matches.
It is quite likely that Prasidh Krishna will retain his place, but there is a chance that Arshdeep will replace Mohammed Siraj in the playing XI at Edgbaston, Birmingham. Kuldeep Yadav is another option India can consider, as he is a wicket-taking bowler who will surely bring a new variety. In the past, we have seen England struggle against Spin.
For the England side, the playing XI is likely to be the same, but there is a very slight chance that Jofra Archer can come into the squad, which is just a 10% chance.
