Published on

After an extensive period of focusing on limited-overs cricket, the Indian team is now turning its attention back to the purest form of the game. England is set to tour India for a five-match Test series, with the first match scheduled at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Thursday, January 25th, at 9:30 AM IST.

The upcoming Test series between India and England holds great significance for both teams in the World Test Championship (WTC) cycle. For India, it marks their first home Test assignment of the season, aiming to build on their recent success against the West Indies and South Africa. Currently ranked second in the WTC points table, India, led by captain Rohit Sharma, seeks a series win to solidify their position at the top.

The series is also an opportunity to assess squad depth and dispel myths regarding adaptation to challenging Asian conditions. On the other hand, England, after drawing the Ashes series, looks to assert dominance with their evolved Test approach, with this series gaining added importance as they strive to climb the WTC rankings from their eighth position.
