A rescheduled fifth Test match between England and India will be played in Birmingham from tomorrow. With the first four of a five-match series played in the previous English summer, England and India will lock horns yet again for a one-off Test this year to be followed by six white-ball matches; all within span of 17 days.
England, who have an overall better head to head record against India, should be confident of drawing level the series especially after coming on the back of whitewashing New Zealand 3-0. It wouldn’t be wrong to say that another successful execution of ‘BazBall’ will make winning quite difficult for the visitors in this match.
That being said, India would want to take confidence from the series score line of 2-1 in their favour. Playing under a brand new captain, Indians fans don’t really know what’s in store for them at Edgbaston. However, it is this uncertainty which has it in it to be converted into fascination during the course of the next five days.
