IND vs ENG, Test 1: India and England will start their journey in the new cycle of World Test Championship(2025-2027) playing against each other at Headingley, Leeds. The 5 match test series will be a challenge for both teams, with Shubman Gill leading India in the White jersey and Ben Stokes leading the English side. Though the “Bazball” approach seemed effective initially, it didn’t help the England team do something significant so far, as they ended their WTC(2023-2025) journey at number 5 in the points table.
It will be a new era for Indian test cricket as Shubman Gill will be leading from the front. That being said, England playing at their home will produce a challenge for the Indian side, which is missing veterans like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma.
