    5th Test: Jurel, Karun, Prasidh And Akash Come In As England Elect To Bowl Against India

    By IANS News July 31, 2025 • 15:28 PM View: 580
    Tendulkar Trophy Test: Dhruv Jurel, Karun Nair and Prasidh Krishna have been included in India’s playing eleven as England’s stand-in captain Ollie Pope won the toss and elected to bowl first in the fifth Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy Test at The Oval on Thursday.

    The game could be in for a delayed start as rain arrived after the toss and covers have come back on the pitch and playing square. England are currently leading the series 2-1 and are looking to win a five-match series for the first time since 2018, when they beat India 4-1. England will be captained by Ollie Pope after Ben Stokes was ruled out due to a right shoulder injury.

    With Stokes going out, Jacob Bethell comes into the playing eleven. Fast bowling trio of Gus Atkinson, Jamie Overton and Josh Tongue are also included in place of pacers Jofra Archer and Brydon Carse and left-arm spin bowling all-rounder Liam Dawson. Pope had no hesitation in bowling first after winning the toss due to the green pitch, damp conditions and a sky full of clouds.
