India were leading the five-match series 2-1 when multiple Covid-19 cases in their camp led to the postponement of the final game which was a part of the World Test Championship.
Team India will travel to West Indies to play three ODIs and five T20Is, following the conclusion of the England tour. The white-ball series will start on July 22 and will conclude on August 7. West Indies had toured India earlier this year for three ODIs and as many T20Is, losing all six games. Both teams are yet to announce their squad for the white-ball series.
India vs England rescheduled 5th Test will be played from July 1 to July 5, 2022 at the Edgbaston Cricket Ground in Birmingham. India lead the series 2-1 and a draw is enough for the team to win its fourth series on English soil. India's preparation for the all important Test has been hampered by captain Rohit Sharma's positive COVID-19 test during the tour game against Leicestershire. Designated vice-captain KL Rahul is also out with injury and reports suggest that paceman Jasprit Bumrah could lead India in the match if Rohit doesn't recover in time. Team India head coach Rahul Dravid on Wednesday said that Rohit's condition is being monitored and that he was "still not out" of the match. All eyes will be on former captain Virat Kohli, who showed great form in the Leicestershire match and will be looking to end his barren run of centuries in international cricket. Cheteshwar Pujara has been brought back to the Test squad after a runs-filled County stint. Here is all the telecast and streaming information on the India vs England 5th Tst.
India will play three T20Is and as many ODIs against England after the conclusion of the rescheduled fifth Test between the two sides at Edgbaston in Birmingham. The fifth Test will conclude the five-match series which was postponed last year due to a Covid outbreak in the Indian camp. India lead the series 2-1. The fifth Test will be played from July 1-5, followed by three T20Is and as many ODIs. Team India will be without their vice-captain, who is currently recovering from an injury.
Rohit Sharma's participation in the rescheduled fifth Test against England in Edgbaston was thrown into doubt after he tested positive for COVID-19. It's still unknown whether or not the India captain will recover in time to be fit for the all-important Test. Numerous names have come up to replace Rohit, if he fails to recover in time. But for former Australia spinner Brad Hogg, there is only one name and that's Virat Kohli. Speaking on his YouTube channel, Hogg said that Kohli started this series as captain, and should be able to finish it off as one.
The Indian cricket team arrived in Birmingham on Wednesday ahead of the rescheduled fifth Test against England at Edgbaston which begins on Friday. The official Twitter handle of Edgbaston shared a video of star India batter Virat Kohli walking with teammate Shubman Gill. As they leave the training ground and are walking away, Kohli abruptly turns around to the cameraman with a serious look on his face before asking "what's up?" and then breaking into a grin. "Love someone as much as Kohli loves Admin," Warwickshire tweeted, responding to the video, with a grab of Kohli grinning at the cameraman.
Hasan Ali is an entertaining character on the field. The Pakistan cricket team star pacer's celebration after taking a wicket is quite a sight. Now, his hilarious reaction after an unsuccessful appeal is making headlines. During an intra-squad match at the Pindi Stadium, Hasan Ali appealed without any success for a LBW decision against a rival batter. Then Hasan Ali can be seen moving towards the umpire, and holding his hand in an attempt to raise the finger. It was light moment and everybody present was amused.
Team India head coach Rahul Dravid brushed aside concerns about Virat Kohli's age and fitness and said the star batter is "doing what he needs to do" to come out of his lean patch of form. Kohli has not hit a century in international cricket since November 2019, but Dravid insisted that he only wants "match-winning contributions" from the 33-year-old and that does not necessarily have to be in the form of hundreds. He also said that Kohli's form is not due to a lack of motivation.
