England is playing 11 vs India- Second Test, England’s India Tour 2025:
Opener: Zak Crolly, Ben Docket
England will open the innings with Zak Croly and Ben Docket in the second Test of the five -match series against India.
The pair chasing a tough target of 371 runs, adding 188 runs for the first wicket, will see to continue the good work done in the second innings of the first Test.

Both Crolyan and Docket took an aggressive approach to the first ball and did not give the Indian bowlers, including Jasprit Bumrah and a bowl at a special length.
Docket was particularly more aggressive for two openers as he cut India and pulled India and was serious against Ravindra Jadeja.
The left -handed batsman employed the sweep and reverse sweep shot for perfection and did not allow the left -arm spinner to settle.
On the other hand, Croley made full use of the opportunity in the second innings after falling into Bumrah in the first innings of the first innings and scored a half -century and gave good support to Docket.
The batsman will expect one step further and score a century in the upcoming match in Edgbaston in the upcoming match.
Middle-order batsman and all-rounders: Oli Pope, Joe Root, Harry Brook, Ben Stokes (C), Jamie Smith (WK), Chris Woakes
The English Middle Order made a great comeback after failing to start in a big score and directed the team to a famous win after some nervous moments in the last day.
Chase was led by former captain Joe Root in the middle order, who stabilized the ship after losing two wickets in England’s quick succession after a solid start.
Root formed a small but important partnership with Docket and Stokes to take the team closer to the target, completing a partnership between him and Jamie Smith.
The host would like to perform a little better than its middle-order batsmen, the second Test match.
Saying that, the hosts would be removed from the contribution of the team’s lower middle order, as the contribution of the last four batsmen made a big difference in the end.
Bowler: Bridan Cars, Shoaib Bashir, Josh Tongue
The England squad has been promoted by the return of the fast bowler Jofra Archer, which is part of the team for the second Test.
However, the hosts are expected to go with an unchanged squad in a second test against India. Chris Woakes and Bridan Cars will be on Ons to take the initial wickets for the team.
Vokes, in particular, want to correct things in the second match as he appeared to struggle with his bowling in the initial game.
Josh tongue will once again play an important role in the match and will have the responsibility of getting rid of the tales, while Shoaib Bashir will take care of the spin bowling department.
We are ready to do all this again @Edgbaston On Wednesday!
