IND vs Eng Test: Under the captaincy of Shubman Gill, Team India is preparing for the 5 -match Test series against England. This team adorned with young players is difficult to win in England but not impossible. Sourav Ganguly said that the condition of England is challenging for young players but this is also a chance for him, to prove himself. He also reacted to Shreyas Iyer not being selected in the team and targeted the selectors.

The Indian team will play the first Test from June 20, for which the players have been practicing in England from 7 June. The experience of Jasprit Bumrah, Rishabh Pant, Karun Nair will definitely work on this tour, but England’s condition is going to be challenging for most players. Sourav Ganguly said in an interview to Revsportz that, “Our youth team in Australia has done so when Rohit-Virat was not. Shubman Gill, Sai Sudarshan, Abhimanyu, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Karun Nair have returned. According to me, I have an opportunity for all these, this is not a pressure to all of them.

In this interview, Sourav Ganguly targeted the selectors when Shreyas Iyer was not there and said that he is not the players that should be excluded. He said, “He has been giving his best for the last one year, he should have been in the team. He is not a player who should be kept out of the team. He is now playing good innings under pressure, understanding responsibilities, playing short balls. Although Test cricket is different but I wanted him to be seen in this series to see what he can do.”
