India vs England Live Score, 1 test match: England Test Captain Ben Stokes won throwing and chose to Bowl against India in the opening test of five Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy Series on Friday in Headingley.
This match is the beginning of the new era for the Indian test cricket, while the team performed without long-term bats-virat Kohli and Rohit Sharm-steay as Senior Off-Spinner Ravicran Ashwin. For the first time in tests, SHUBMAN GILL, who for the first time in tests, will focus on rewriting history by leading the team in England to win the series – the first since 2007 and the first test victory in Headingley since 2002.
Meanwhile, England has evolved into the dominant side of the red ball under the leadership of head coach Brendon McCullum and Captain Ben Stokes. Since McCullum took the lead in 2022, England has not lost a series of domestic tests.
For India, the day brought a special moment when Sai Sudhasan became a test cap No. 317. 23 -year -old left crank was a veteran Cheteshwar Pujara handed over his first cap. Another remarkable incorporation is Karun Nair, who returns to the test side after eight years.
Shardul Thakur was chosen over the young man Nitish Kumar Reddy to strengthen the Indian pace of attack as the fourth sailor, supporting the trio Jasprit Bumhrah, Mohammed Siraj and Prazidh Krishna. Ravindra Jadeja, the only spinner in XI, also adds depth with a bat.
After winning, England Skipper Ben Stokes said: “We will mix. Headingley is a very good cricket goal. We had some really good games here. We wanted to use early conditions. We’ve been a long time, but it’s a little weird it’s just the second series but we’re ready. Brydon and the rest.”
Indian captain Shaubman Gill, talking about throwing, said, “The first would also slip, it could be a little difficult in the first session, but it should be good to bat later. The sun is outside, so it should be a good deck for us.
