India vs Leicestershire warm-up match, June 23-27, India tour of England

The Indian team has reached England and the fans are very excited about the deciding match. India will look to beat England at home by winning the last year’s unfinished Test match. The England vs India series is currently 2-1 in India’s favour, with the final match scheduled to take place at Edgbaston, Birmingham from 1 July to 5 July.

Virat Kohli, who captained India for the first four Tests in the country last year, will not be the captain for the game, with Rohit Sharma leading the side. This will be the opener’s first Test away from home as a full-time captain in any format. The visitors will also miss the services of KL Rahul and Ajinkya Rahane, who have been hit with injuries. Another member of the unit, Ishant Sharma, who toured England in 2021, has been dropped. R Ashwin tested positive for Covid-19 and is yet to travel to England. Some new names have been added but who will get Jag in Aakhiri 11, it is not yet decided to say.

India will open a warm-up match with Leicestershire before the deciding Test. The Indian team will play a four-day warm-up match before the fifth Test against Leicestershire on June 24. This match will be played at Grace Road in Leicestershire. The game has been awarded first-class fixture status.

Will the priority of international cricket end due to IPL?

This will be the first time since the end of IPL 2022 that many senior players will be in action. Against South Africa, the senior players were given a chance to rest so that the young players could be selected properly in the team going to the World Cup. Players like Kohli, Rohit and Jasprit Bumrah were rested for the recent five-match T20I series against South Africa to prepare for the Test match against England. The Test team flew to the United Kingdom last week, while players who were part of the T20I set-up, including Rishabh Pant and head coach Rahul Dravid, arrived after the end of the series, which ended 2-2.

This practice match will not be broadcast live anywhere, not in India or England. Fans can watch this match in live streaming on YouTube of Leicestershire. This match will be played from 23 to 27 June.

Indian Squad: Rohit Sharma (Captain), Shubman Gill, Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, Hanuma Vihari, Rishabh Pant (WK), Ravindra Jadeja, Shardul Thakur, Mohammed Shami, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami
