ENG vs IND: Match Details<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n ENG vs IND: Match Preview:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n A new-look English team has ticked off all boxes in the recently concluded 3-match test series against defending World Test Champions New Zealand, clinching the series 3-0. As expected, Joe Root was the highest run-scorer for the English team with 396 runs in 6 innings, averaging 99.00. However, what surprised most people was Jonny Bairstow. The explosive keeper batter was the second-highest run-getter for England in the series as he smacked 394 runs at a strike rate of 120.12. Put together with Ollie Pope, Ben Stokes and the new all-rounder Jamie Overton, the English batting lineup looks strong enough to draw the series against India 2-2 with a win in the Edgbaston Test. <\/p>\r\n\r\n Matty Potts was the lead wicket-taker for the England team against New Zealand, with 14 wickets in 3 matches at an impressive economy of 2.59. Leach showed his skills as the spinner grabbed 13 wickets while bowling in 4 innings. Broad and Anderson followed with 12 and 11 wickets each to their name and very well may trouble the Indian batters. <\/p>\r\n\r\n Team India played their last test against Sri Lanka at home in March 2022, and would be etching to register a win or a draw and win their first series in England since 2007. Rohit's unavailability due to covid will put India back a bit as the opener was the highest run-scorer in India vs England test series last year, with 368 runs in 8 innings including a ton & two fifties. However, KS Bharat, who performed well in the practice match, may get the opening slot. <\/p>\r\n\r\n The bowling department will be ably handled by the stand-in captain Jasprit Bumrah, who picked up 18 wickets for India against England in England last year. Along with, Mohammad Siraj & Mohammad Shami, the pace trio can easily wreak havoc on the English batters and help India register a historic series win on English soil. Ravindra Jadeja will be the spin option, and team management may play R Ashwin or Shardul Thakur with the pitch conditions in mind. <\/p>\r\n\r\n Today's Match Prediction: Who Will Win Today's Match? ENG vs IND<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n Even though team India is leading the series 2-1, the new-look English side looks dangerous and with a 3-0 win against WTC champions on their back, the hosts will start as favourites to win this match against an 'undercooked' Indian side. <\/p>\r\n\r\n ENG vs IND Head-to-Head:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n ENG vs IND Team News: <\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n ENG vs IND Probable Playing XI:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n England have already announced their playing XI a day before the test match. <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\t
