IND Playing 11 for India vs England, 5th Test; 5 Best Fantasy Cricket Picks for Dream11 Team Prediction

IND Playing 11: India has returned to the United Kingdom for the final Test of the series left unfinished in 2021. India and England will be colliding at Edgbaston in Birmigham for the rescheduled 5th Test starting from July 1.

Ahead of the start of the rescheduled Test, India has got a headache in the form of their skipper Rohit Sharma who has been found COVID positive and his selection looms under the clouds of doubt. Coach Rahul Dravid hasn’t completely ruled out the possibility of Rohit Sharma missing the game, but in case he does, Jasprit Bumrah in the absence of regular vice captain KL Rahul, is the front runner to lead the side. What will be the best 11 for India in this vital test match? Let’s take a look.

Mayank Agarwal has been called as a cover for the doubtful skipper Rohit Sharma.
In case Rohit is unavailable for this game, Jasprit Bumrah is expected to lead the side and KS Bharat is likely to open along with Shubman Gill.
KS Bharat did pretty well opening the innings in the warm-up match against Leicestershire and might get a nod ahead of Mayank Sharma to open the innings.
Cheteshwar Pujara at 3 and Virat Kohli will bat at no 4.
One between Shreyas Iyer or Hanuma Vihari will bat at no 5.
Rishabh Pant, Ravindra Jadeja, and one between Shardul Thakur or Ravichandran Ashwin will take the 6,7, and 8th spot in the order.
Mohammad Shami, Jasprit Bumrah, and Mohammad Siraj will be the pace-trio.
