England’s big decision before India-England Test series: three star bowlers out, then these players come back.

Delhi: The 5 Test series between India and England is going to start from June 20. Earlier, England has included two fast bowlers Chris Woakes and Josh Tong in the England Lions team playing against India A. This match will be played in Northampton from 6 June. England has taken this decision so that these players can get match practice before the big series against India and they are in rhythm.

Chris Woakes is returning to cricket after recovering from ankle injury. Recently, he took 6 wickets while bowling brilliantly for Warvikashar. At the same time, Josh Tung recently played a Test match against Zimbabwe.

Three fast bowlers out of the series

England’s bowling unit has suffered a setback as three important bowlers are out of the series.

• Gus Etkinson has been out of the first Test due to Hamstring injury.
• Mark Wood is already out of the entire Test series due to a knee injury.
• Jofra Archer will probably not be able to play in the first two Tests due to thumb injury.

These players can become part of the first Test play

Apart from Chris Woakes and Josh Tung, Bridan Cars, Matthew Pots and Sam Cook can also be included in the team for the first Test starting in Leeds from June 20.

Shoaib Bashir will play the lead role in the team as a spinner. Earlier it was expected that captain Ben Stokes would also play for England Lions, but he has not been included in the 13 -member team.

KL Rahul arrives in England

Talking about the Indian team, batsman KL Rahul has reached England. It is expected that he will be seen playing in a practice match against England Lions, so that he can strengthen his preparations before the Test series. However, Test captain Shubman Gill and Sai Sudarshan will not play in this match as they have to travel with the entire team on Friday.

Now it has to be seen how both teams prepare for the series starting from June 20. Fans are eagerly waiting for this series.
