While Rishabh Pant is leading a team India against South Africa in a five-match T20I series, several players have left for England on June 16.
India are set to lock horns with England at Old Trafford starting on July 1. The match is counted as the fifth Test of India’s 2021 series in England, which they lead by 2-1. The scheduled final Test was postponed at the last minute after a Covid-19 outbreak in the Indian camp.
The match will be played at Edgbaston, Birmingham from July 1-5. India currently leads the Test series 2-1. The fifth Test match, which was supposed to be held in Old Trafford, Manchester last year, was cancelled due to COVID-19 cases in the Indian contingent.
