    From Joe Root To Jasprit Bumrah: Stars Who Could Define India’s Tour Of England

    From Joe Root: The start of the 2025-27 World Test Championship cycle represents a chance for new beginnings. India and England are set to kick off a five-Test series, beginning at the Headingley Cricket Ground on Friday (June 20). Both teams are coming into this cycle in search of a fresh start despite boasting contrasting records in the first three editions of the trophy.

    India carved out their spot in the ultimate Test in 2021 and 2023 but lost in the finals against New Zealand and Australia, respectively. They missed out on qualifying for their third straight final with consecutive series defeats inflicted by the hands of New Zealand (at home) and their tour of Australia. England, on the other hand, have hosted all three finals of the WTC but have never been able to reach the summit clash.

    With a fairly inexperienced bowling attack at their disposal and a young batting order, the Three Lions will be hoping to start on the right foot and change their trajectory in the Test format. A series of this magnitude presents a massive opportunity for all players involved to stand tall in tough, challenging conditions and potentially lead their sides to victory. Here are the players who could have a massive role to play in their side’s fortunes in the coming months.
