The second Test between England and India will get underway on 12 August, at Lord’s. The five-match series is currently level after the first Test at Trent Bridge ended in a draw because of the rain’s arrival in regular intervals.
India may go with either R. Ashwin or Ishant Sharma to replace Shardul Thakur, who has been ruled out of the match due to a left hamstring injury. On the other hand, England will make at least three changes from their last encounter: Moeen Ali, Mark Wood and Craig Overton are expected to fill in for Dan Lawrence, Stuart Broad and James Anderson.
Betway Fantasy Tips
– Pick Ashwin as captain if India include him in the playing XI. Do not ignore Jasprit Bumrah either. He has got his rhythm back, which we all have seen in the last Test.
– Bet on India. With Anderson and Broad missing out, England are well and truly the weaker side on paper before heading to the contest.
LiveScore Stats and Trivia
– Joe Root needs 14 more runs to surpass Graham Gooch’s tally of 8,900 Test runs and become the second-most run-getter for England in Test cricket. Alastair Cook leads the chart, with 12,472 runs.
– The match is set to become England’s second home Test since 2007 where neither Broad nor Anderson will be part of the lineup. During this period, this only happened once in 2012, against West Indies in Edgbaston.
