Team India will be head-to-head with England for their fifth rescheduled match at Edgbaston, Birmingham, from 1 July. The Test was rescheduled because after the fourth Test last year, the Indian camp was hit by the Covid-19 outbreak which led to the match being postponed.
India is 2-1 ahead in the series and awaits their first Test series win on British soil since 2007. If the fifth match ends in a draw, it will be enough for India to win. But it may be difficult for the Indian team to beat a confident English team that painted New Zealand white in a 3-game series. Also, with that in mind, India regular openings will not have the services of Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul.
