After the coin toss, Shastri was surprised by Jasprit Bumrah’s non-selection for a second test, as he commented that when someone has the No. 1-Rank test bowler, he should be played under all possibilities. Shastri also cited a call to rest as Bumrah as unnecessary, as there was a 7 -day infection between the two tests.

Ravi Shastri complained, “You have the best fast bowler in the world, and you sit on him after seven days of rest. It is very difficult to believe it.”
“And as you have mentioned, one week between Test matches-this is an important Test match, should be a win for India. If they want to live in the series, you need to play your premiere fast bowler. And no IFS and no, but not, he should have played,” Shastri said in his claims.
Jasprit Bumrah has been replaced by sky deep
India’s lead fast bowler, Jasprit Bumrah, has been replaced deeply in the Indian game for the Edgbaston Test. Bumrah was India’s best pace bowler with 5 wickets in the first innings of the Leeds Test.
He also followed an affordable wicket -wicket with the second innings. Bumrah is seen in the nets in Birmingham as he postponed himself while bowling in full swing. However, the sky deep enters 11 after his last match in the Deep Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
India will now move forward with three pacers: Akash Deep, Mohammad Sirj and Prasad Krishna, while Ravindra Jadeja and Washington are the beautiful spin options.

With Jasprit Bumrah, who rested for a second test, Indian spinner Kuldeep Yadav, who was projected in the Indian test side, has not been selected in 11.

Citing this change, the new captain, Shubman Gill clarified in the toss that despite many veterans of the game to bring Kuldeep Yadav as a frontline spinner, the Indian management decided to strengthen the Indian lower order batting with the inclusion of Washington Sundar.
Ravi Shastri said, “I am a little surprised that Sai Reforms has been dropped. He really played well in that Test match. Kuldeep Yadav, the man will have to wait. Garib Chap,” said Ravi Shastri.
“It becomes a very important Test match”
