India are set to face Ben Stokes’s England in the second Test of the five-match Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy series, beginning July 2 at Edgbaston in Birmingham. Ahead of the India vs England 2nd Test, here’s a look at the head-to-head record, key stats, and India’s track record at the venue.
After a five-wicket defeat in the first Test at Leeds, the visitors will be eager to bounce back. India could field a different-looking XI for the second Test, with pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah likely to be rested.
The second Test at Edgbaston will be crucial for India, not only because they are yet to win a Test at the venue, but also with England already 1-0 up in the series.
To make matters tougher, the weather forecast isn't promising, adding another layer of challenge for the visitors.
