The five-match Test series between India and England will start on August 4. It has been 14 years since Team India won the Test series in England. Under the leadership of Rahul Dravid, India defeated the English team in 2007, but since then England have made India worse on every tour. In such a situation, the chances of Team India’s victory coming to England with strong speed attacks this time around are high. Recently, Rahul Dravid, who led the team to a historic victory under his captaincy during the 2007 tour, acknowledged that India have a good chance of defeating the English team this time under the leadership of Virat Kohli. Former India captain Dilip Vengsarkar has also agreed with Rahul. He said India had reached England for the first time with such a powerful bowling attack.

Dilip Vengsarkar said, “I agree with Rahul Dravid. This time India has great opportunities because this is the first time we have reached England with many world class bowlers. Bowlers like Mohammad Shami, Bumrah, Siraj and Ishant are top notch. I think this is really India’s best opportunity. Talking about India and England Test series some time ago, Dravid said, ‘I really think India has a good chance at this time. There is no question of his (England) bowling. Any bowling attack, such as England, can be particularly effective in fielding fast bowling attacks. They have so many options. But if you look at their top six or seven batsmen, you really think of a world-class batsman and that’s Joe Root.

Speaking about Virat Kohli’s farm, the former India captain said, “I am sure he (Virat) will be able to end the century drought because at the end of the day he is a fantastic player.” Virat and Rohit are currently the best batsmen in India and I think they both run quite well. But at the same time I want the rest of the batsmen to contribute because this is important and we should not rely on just two batsmen. The rest of the batsmen must also score runs.
