Excitement, Anticipation As Ben Foakes Gears Up For Test Return In India
England wicketkeeper-batsman Ben Foakes, who started his Test career with a century during England's tour of Sri Lanka in 2018, but was axed after his form tapered off with the bat in the subsequent series two years back says he is expecting a call-up in the second Test.
The 27-year-old Foakes hasn't played a Test in two years but his impressive debut with the bat in Sri Lanka two years back prompted the England team management to bring him to India especially as a stop-gap arrangement for the second Test when neither Jos Buttler nor Jonny Bairstow will be available.
