The ongoing Test series between the two cricketing giants is of utmost importance for both the participating nations considering the ICC World Test Championship. With only one spot available, a tooth and nail battle is on the cards between India and England in the four-match series.

England have already announced their playing XI for the game, and Stuart Broad comes in the place of veteran pacer James Anderson because of the team's rotational policy. Notably, Jofra Archer has also been ruled out of the India vs England 2nd Test. The lanky speedster suffered an elbow injury which prevented him from attending England's training session on Thursday as the visitors returned to training after trouncing India in the first Test by 227 runs. India are expected to take the field with only one change. Axar Patel seems to be the frontrunner to replace Shahbaz Nadeem in the side.
