News India Live, Digital Desk: The Indian cricket team has left for England for their upcoming five -match Test series, which will begin on 20 June in Headingley, Leeds. Shubman GillThose who will take the new role of the captain, will lead the 18 -member strong team on England’s soil for more than one and a half months. The team was seen arriving at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport in Mumbai late on Thursday to fly to England.
Before leaving, captain Gill and head coach Gautam Gambhir addressed a press conference in which he spoke about his combination and difficult tour plan. While the India A team is already in England, the senior men’s team left for the British nation two weeks before their first Test against England. He has to play a four-day practice match against Bharat A (Intra-Squad) in Bekenham from June 13, led by the series.
The Indian team took a late night flight from Mumbai to England as usual, as the team reached the airport in the first bus and came out amid proper security as some fans were trying to get a glimpse of their cricket heroes. The team waited for their ticket check and spent some good time in the lobby inside the airport, where they clicked some pictures to share with their fans on social media.
Gill was accompanied by Sai Sudarshan and Arshdeep Singh, who was first included in the Test team, while regular players Rishabh Pant, Jaspreet Bumrah, Mohammad Siraj, Kuldeep Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja were also seen traveling with the team. Famous Krishna and Washington Sundar were also in the team.
WTC 2025-27 cycle begins
India will visit England for the five-match Test series under the 2025-27 World Test Championship cycle. The performance of the Men in Blue in the 2023-25 cycle was quite disappointing and missed the opportunity to make a hat-trick of the WTC final. This five -match case is the beginning of the next Test cycle for both England and India, as their goal is to make a great start.
India will play without its star senior Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, who bid farewell to Test matches last month, and the young Gill is carrying a huge burden of the responsibilities of leading the team on England’s soil.
