Test Series Against India Is A Chance To Show Different Skills, Says Pacer Brydon Carse
“Headingley is an unbelievable ground. I’ve played a bit of white-ball cricket there over the last couple of years for England and in The Hundred, but to be able to play a home Test against India is going to be pretty exciting, and I cannot wait to get going,” said Carse in the pre-game press conference.
The 29-year-old has not played since injuring his toe while playing in the Champions Trophy in February and missed out on making his home Test debut against Zimbabwe in the one-off Test.
Carse is adamant he will be taking the five-game series against India as an opportunity to show the different skills he brings to the table.
“I think it's a great opportunity, I've spoken before about the group of ten fast bowlers that England have, a couple of injuries are in there, but we've still got a pretty healthy stock of bowling to pick from and it's another opportunity in home conditions to show the different skills that I can bring to the team,” Carse added.
The five-Test series against India will be the first challenge of what will be a gruelling year for England in Test cricket. After hosting India, England will play two white-ball series against South Africa and Ireland before travelling to Australia for The Ashes, where the team has not won a Test match since 2011.
