Rohit Sharma is all set to play the first T2I International in Southampton on July 7 but the likes of Virat Kohli, Jasprit Bumrah, Rishabh Pant and Ravindra Jadeja will be available from the second T20I onwards.
The fifth Test between England and India, the great finale of a soul-sapping series from last summer, has been one of the most awaited for so long that it came out with different skippers and coaching staff on both sides.
The All-India Senior Selection Committee has named Jasprit Bumrah as captain for the upcoming Test and Rishabh Pant as his deputy as Rohit Sharma has tested positive for COVID-19.
