New India skipper Shubman Gill will face baptism by fire as he leads a transitioning India side against England in a 5-match Test series, starting on Friday. India face a tough test with Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and R Ashwin all hanging up their boots from the longest format in the last few months.

Gill who began his Test journey in 2020, averages just 14.66 in the three Tests he has played in England, mining just 88 runs and he’ll be looking to rectify that in this series where he’ll face a England team bereft of seasoned seamers like Jmaes Anderson and Stuart Broad, both of whom have retired.
Also returning to the team after a long time is Karun Nair who will be looking to make his mark. This will also be a series that is expected to see the debuts of Sai Sudharsan and Abhimanyu Easwaran.
