IND vs ENG Key Players

Ravichandran Ashwin

When it comes to Tests in India Ravichandran Ashwin is the big one to watch. Closing in on 500 Test Wickets and with aggressive batters on the other side he could well look to reach the milestone in the upcoming fixture, unless his competitor, Ravindra Jadeja, challenges him.

Joe Root

Last time Joe Root was in India for a Test series he was in the middle of a really good patch. He got a double century in the first Test and looked very good through the series. He remains in good form and has a huge role coming into the series with both bat and ball.

IND vs ENG Match Tips

England look pretty promising but India is a different challenge, which could be interesting to watch.
