Two Spinners Who Could Play Along With Ashwin In The First India-England Test

By IANS News January 26, 2021 • 14:15 PM View: 3014

In December 2016, when England last traveled to India for a Test series, Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin combined to capture 54 of the 93 English wickets to fall as the team romped to a 4-0 series win in the five-Test series.

This time, though, Jadeja's absence from the first two Tests due to a thumb fracture will mean India will have to pair either one, or two, of Kuldeep Yadav, Washington Sundar, and Axar Patel with Ashwin against the visiting England side.
