ENG vs IND 2022 Final Test Match Preview

England aim to continue dream form, India look to clinch series.

England will face India in the fifth rescheduled Test match at Edgbaston, Birmingham from Friday.

The Three Lions are in prolific form as they had recently beaten Test champions New Zealand by 3-0 and had played an aggressive brand of cricket under Ben Stokes and new head coach Brendon McCullum.

India, on the other hand, had played a four-day warm-up match against Leicestershire and all of their batters had looked in decent form. However, the tourists will be without the services of their captain, Rohit Sharma, which is a big blow for them.

Jasprit Bumrah will lead India for the first time and he is all set to become the 36th Indian Test captain. Bumrah will look to lead from the front and it will be interesting to note how will he get the best out of his players.

England has already named their playing XI whereas India will name theirs at the time of toss.

England XI: Zak Crawley, Alex Lees, Ollie Pope, Joe Root, Jonny Bairstow, Ben Stokes (c), Sam Billings (wk), Matthew Potts, Stuart Broad, Jack Leach, James Anderson

India’s Test squad: Jasprit Bumrah (c), Mayank Agarwal, Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, Hanuma Vihari, Cheteshwar Pujara, Rishabh Pant (vice-captain, wk), KS Bharat (wk), Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Shardul Thakur, Mohd Shami, Mohd Siraj, Umesh Yadav, Prasidh Krishna.
