India vs England 2nd Test: Toss Time, Sessions Timings , Live Stream, Squads, Injury Updates and AYNTK

After an 8-day break, the 5-match Test series between India and England will start again on July 2. India currently leads the series after a tough win at Headingley. However, England weren’t too far behind, even though they had a newly put-together batting lineup. That said, their bowling and fielding still need some work.

England will stick with the same team, but India might make a few changes. Jasprit Bumrah could be rested, and Arshdeep Singh might get a chance to make his Test debut. Kuldeep Yadav, Washington Sundar, and Nitish Kumar Reddy are also being considered. There's a chance one or even two of them could be in the playing XI at Edgbaston.

India vs England 2nd Test: Pitch Report

Traditionally, the pitch at Edgbaston tends to help the fast bowlers during the first couple of days, before gradually offering more to the spinners as the match goes on. But this time, it’s unlikely to behave like your typical Birmingham surface. With the Bazball approach changing the way England plays, batting has become a lot more comfortable, and we might see a pitch that plays more like the one at Headingley.
