**Edgbaston, UK -** India’s cricket team, led by Shubman Gill, dominated England at Edgbaston on Sunday, securing a resounding 336-run victory. This marks India’s first-ever Test win at the venue and levels the series at 1-1. Gill’s exceptional performance with the bat, scoring 269 and 161, coupled with Akash Deep’s impressive 10-wicket haul, were pivotal in India’s triumph.
The focus now shifts to Lord’s for the third Test, commencing on July 10th. Captain Gill confirmed that pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah, rested for workload management, will return to the squad.
Speculation surrounds who will make way for Bumrah. Akash Deep and Mohammed Siraj are expected to retain their spots. According to sources, Karun Nair will be given a longer run at No. 3. Fast bowler Prasidh Krishna is the most likely candidate to be replaced. Krishna’s expensive spells in both Tests, including a hammering by England’s Jamie Smith, and his record-breaking economy rate have put him under scrutiny.
