Team India Squad for England Tour: Team India has been announced for the upcoming Test series against England. On Saturday (May 24), Chief Selector Ajit Agarkar announced an 18 -member squad through a press conference in Mumbai. The biggest news is that Shubman Gill has been made the captain of India’s Test team. At the same time, star wicket -keeper batsman Rishabh Pant will take over the responsibility of vice -captain.
Ajit Agarkar -led selection committee has once again ignored experienced fast bowler Mohammed Shami. There was a report that there is still a question mark on Shami’s fitness and it is suspected that he will be able to put 20 overs in a day in a Test match. In place of Mohammed Shami, the selectors have given young fast bowler Arshdeep Singh a place in the team.
Indian batsman Karun Nair, who created a sensation by scoring a triple century against England in 2016, finally got the opportunity for which he had been working hard for the last several years. He has been included in Team India after creating panic in domestic cricket. He got a place in the Test team after a long wait of 8 years. He last played a Test against Australia in 2017.
Sudarshan-sarshadeep’s bright luck
Sai Sudarshan, who is playing for the Gujarat Titans in IPL 2025, has received a reward for a great performance. Shubman Gill’s partner has got an entry in Team India for the Test series against England. The left -handed batsman has played 13 matches in IPL 2025 so far and scored 638 runs playing at an average of 53.17. At the same time, Punjab King’s fast bowler Arshdeep Singh has also shined the fate and he too has got a chance to show strength in Tests.
