The Indian cricket team is touring England and will play a five-match Test series between the two teams starting Wednesday (August 4). The first Test match of the series will be played in Nottingham. When it comes to Test cricket, England has the advantage over India, so this series will not be easy for Virat and Co. England will go to the series without star All-rounder Ben Stokes, who is on an indefinite hiatus from cricket due to mental health. The injury to Team India players before the start of the Test series has raised concerns for the management of the team. Shubman Gill, Washington Sundar and Avesh Khan are out of the tour due to injury. India have included Suryakumar Yadav and Prithvi Shah as substitutes, but it was difficult for them to play the first two Tests.
