The Indian cricket team will be touring England for a five-match Test series, starting on June 20. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has already announced an 18-member squad, which features some fresh faces like Sai Sudharsan, Abhimanyu Easwaran, and Arshdeep Singh. Karun Nair is also back in the squad after his terrific performances in domestic cricket.
The Indian squad will have a young talent playing in the challenging pitch conditions of England. However, the absence of players like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma will definitely be felt. But there are surely some players in the team who have the ability to score runs against the English bowlers with great confidence.
Here are the 3 Indian batters who can be the top scorer during England tour:
3. Shubman Gill

Shubman Gill’s batting position is yet to be revealed. The right-handed batter used to play as an opening batter, later transitioning to the no. 3 batter after Cheteshwar Pujara’s exclusion. However, after Rohit’s retirement, it is reported that Gill could be seen opening or playing at the no. 4 batting positions. Gill will have the extra pressure of leading the team, but he is still one of the contenders to become India’s top run scorer against England.
2. KL Rahul

The star India batter, KL Rahul, has been performing well in the longest format for a while now. Just like Gill, Rahul’s batting position is also yet to be decided after the retirement of Rohit and Kohli from Test cricket. However, in whichever position Rahul plays, he will remain one of the batters to become the top scorer in the upcoming Test series.
1. Yashasvi Jaiswal

The young India batter, Yashasvi Jaiswal, is the top contender to become the leading run scorer for India in the upcoming Test series against England. Jaiswal is undoubtedly the most consistent batter in India’s current Test squad. The left-handed batter displayed decent performance in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy as well and the same is expected from him for the England tour.
