Now the second Test match between India and England will be played in Birmingham Azbaston from 2 July. Learn here how England’s playing XI can be in the second Test.
Let us tell you that England has not yet announced its team for the second Test. The England and Wales Cricket Board announced the 13 -member team for the first Test only. But now the report has come that in the second Test, fast bowler Jofra Archer can get a chance.
England batsmen performed brilliantly in the first Test played in Leeds. But the bowlers were not as effective.
