Rahul is likely to open the batting for India atleast in the first test along with Rohit Shama. Shubman Gill has been ruled out with a shin injury. He was India’s first-choice opener in the WTC campaign. Meanwhile, the team management has decided to send Prithvi Shaw and Suryakumar Yadav as covers to England after Gill, Avesh Khan and Washington Sundar have been ruled out of the England series.

The Indian team last won a Test series in England back in 2007 under Rahul Dravid‘s captaincy. Since then India lost in 2011 (4-0), 2014 (3-1) and 2018 (4-1). Thus there are points up for grabs in the WTC campaign with a tough series upfront.
