Full Squad vs England of India: Who is, who is, new faces, return

Batting star Shubman Gill on Saturday began India’s Test leadership with a “large-scale transition” phase, which began with a tour of England, which would not be less than a test by a test for the relatively inexperienced 18-twenty-four-member squad. At the age of 25, Gill Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi (21), Sachin Tendulkar (23), Kapil Dev (24) and Ravi Shastri (25) will be the fifth youngest Test captain in India. He will have swashballing but irregular Rishabh Pant as his deputy for a five -match series which will start in Leeds on 20 June.
“Last year either we have seen Shubman (for leadership). We hope that he is the man (to take the team forward). It’s a high pressure work, but he is a terrible player,” after announcing the squad, the selectors said Ajit Agkar, who had no major surprise.
Gill has so far appeared in 32 trials and has scored a modest 35 runs for his 1893 runs with five hundreds and seven half -centuries at the top of the order since his debut in 2020.
On the other hand, 27-year-old pants are slightly more experienced with 43 tests under his belt and a better average line-up of 42.11 for his 2948 runs. He has broken six hundreds and 15 half centuries since he came in favor in 2018.
Agkar explained the role of Big-Hitter, saying, “Pant is one of our best batsmen in Test cricket in the last four-five years. A wicketkeeper can see the game well and that is why he is the deputy of Shubman.”
The selectors on the leadership of the team were on the expected lines after the retirement of senior stars Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, both called it within a week of each other earlier this month.
A notable exclusion was Pesar Mohammed Shami, which was not considered sufficiently fit for a longer series that would only end in the first week of August.
“He is trying to get fit for the series, but he has got a little shock last week … and he has got some MRIs. I would like to mention, I don’t think he was going to be available for all five tests. I don’t think he does not think his work is where it should be,” the priority said.
“These are just medical people who told us that they had been dropped from the series. Unfortunately, we were hoping that they are available for some part of the series. But if they are not fit at this time, it is very difficult to wait. At the moment he is not fully fit,” he added to the press conference.
Sai, girl call-up for Arshdeep
Among the remarkable inclinations, the young left hand port B Sai Sudarshan and left hand pacer Arshdeep Singh, who earned their first Test call-up.
“Sai has not been selected on the basis of IPL, he has shown the right nature and is a game to succeed at the top level … We’re watching it for a while,” Agkar scored an average of 53 runs on average on average of Gujarat Titans with 638 runs, referring to the top scorer of IPL this season.
Like reformson, Arshdeep also has experience playing in county cricket.
Left -handed pace, which has been taken beyond Khalil Ahmed, is going to take major wickets of India in T20 cricket, but it will be a very difficult challenge to prove yourself in the traditional format.
Constant Nair, Unfit Shami Out
The squad also stars Karun Nair, who returns to the national set-up after eight years. After the last played in 2017, Nair was soon removed from the team after becoming the second triple Centurion in the Test from India.
From the tour of Australia, Harshit Rana and Sarfaraz Khan have also been demolished, it was also thought that it was later claimed that some of his fitness concerns had been addressed by losing weight significantly.
Bumrah is not available for all 5 tests
Apart from Gill, Bumrah was another strong contender for captaincy, but the selectors decided to assign leadership responsibility to the batsman from Punjab.
There were also questions on Bumrah’s fitness and Agkar admitted that the availability of star pacer for the entire series is a concern.
“I don’t think he is available for all five tests, as far as, again, (what) by Physio and doctors told us,” Agkar said on Bumrah.
“Whether it is four or three (testing), we will see how the chain goes and how his body can take charge. There is no need to say how important it is. So, even if he is fit for three or four tests, he is going to win some Test matches,” he said.
The chosen one, both Gill, a leader and batsman, is a major challenge in hand.
His rare batting talent is undisputed, but he is yet to prove himself in Test cricket, especially in the Army (South Africa, England, New Zealand and Australia) countries. It is an average of 14.66 in three tests in England.
As a captain, he has not gained much experience in domestic cricket, but has been leading the IPL franchise Gujarat Titans for the last few sessions.
“This is a massive transition. Both Rohit and Virat were around for a long time,” said that the number four stated that the number four included Kohli’s replacement and the team management included Gill and head coach Gautam Gambar by the team management.
Ezavaran and Thakur also cut
A heavy scorer in domestic cricket, Abhimanyu Ezavaran has got a place in the extended squad as a reserve opener. She has also been selected in the past, but can never facilitate in eleven of playing.
With suspicion on Nitish Reddy The Bowler, the selectors stole another fast bowling all -rounder in Shardul Thakur, who last played for India in December 2023.
Thakur was part of the previous visit to India to England, where he returned to the Oval Test in the fifties that India won by 157 runs.
India’s squad for England’s Test Tour: Shubman Gill (Captain), Rishabh Pant (Vice-Qetan), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Kel Rahul, Sai Sudhasarsan, Abhimanyu Ishwar, Karun Nair, Nair, Nitish Ready, Ravindra Jadeja, Dhurav Jurael, Washington Sundara, Jaspaton Sundar, Jasptul Thrad, Jajplu. Deep, Arshdeep Singh and Kuldeep Yadav.
