New Delhi. The Indian team has to visit England next month. After the Test team captain Rohit Sharma and star batsman Virat Kohli retired from this format, everyone is watching the team selection. The selectors will captain the team for this difficult tour and which players will get a chance to go to England, everyone is waiting for it. India's England tour will start from June 20 and is going to run till 4 August. India has to play 5 Test matches against England on this tour.
After Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli's sudden retirement from the test, the selectors have to choose a strong team. The name of Jaspreet Bumrah and Shubman Gill is the most discussed as captain. The selector will command the Test team to the fast experienced fast bowler or the batsman Gill will be made the captain, it will be clear quickly. Most people are assuming that the selectors may not want to give this responsibility on Bumrah, who constantly struggled with the problem of injury. It is also a matter that perhaps this bowler does not get a chance to play all the matches on the tour of England. Under the work load management, Bumrah can be rested in some matches.
India, who played the World Test Championship final twice in a row, missed out on making a place this time. This time the final is to be played between Australia and South Africa. The WTC final is to be played at the historic Lord's Ground in England from 11 June. A few days later, there is a five-match Test series between India and England. In the last Test series played in England last time, India equalized 2-2.
