IND vs ENG Live Score, 2nd Test Day 1 Today: Rohit Sharma have won the toss and India elect to bat first in the second Test of the five-match series against England in Visakhapatnam.
India have made three changes in their playing XI. Injured KL Rahul and Ravindra Jadeja has been replaced by Rajat Patidar, who is making his Test debut and Kuldeep Yadav. Mukesh Kumar comes in for Mohammed Siraj. On the other hand, England have made a couple of changes from their last win. Off-spinner Shoaib Bashir is making his debut in place of injured Jack Leach and James Anderson will replace Mark Wood.
Earlier, the Ben Stokes-led England side took little time to surprise India by taking a 1-0 lead in the five-Test match series. It was only India’s fourth defeat in the longest format in the past 10 years. Looking to prove it as an aberration rather than a recurring trend, as a team with the best W/L ratio in the format at home since 2014, India will take field against England in the second Test starting February 2 in Visakhapatnam.
Teams:
India (Playing XI): Yashasvi Jaiswal, Rohit Sharma(c), Shubman Gill, Rajat Patidar, Shreyas Iyer, Srikar Bharat(w), Ravichandran Ashwin, Axar Patel, Jasprit Bumrah, Mukesh Kumar, Kuldeep Yadav
