Predicting top 3 bowlers from first Test in India tour of England in Leed

England and India will play a five-match Test series beginning on June 20 in Leeds. There are several injury issues faced by England before the home series. For both sides, this series will also mark the beginning of the next World Test Championship (WTC) cycle, 2025–2027. 

For the first time, Shubman Gill is leading India in Test cricket, and the team is set to start a new chapter in Test cricket under his leadership. Following the sudden Test retirements of prominent players like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, this will be the debut of a young, fresh side on English soil.  The game will need bowlers to exert more effort. 

1. Jasprit Bumrah:

India will rely on Bumrah’s bowling ability again. In the most recent India-England series, Jasprit Bumrah was the highest wicket-taker in the five-match Test series. India will need Bumrah to perform at his best to gain an advantage in the series, even if it is uncertain if he will play all five test matches. Jasprit Bumrah has taken 60 wickets against England, and due to his impressive experience, other bowlers will take a look at Bumrah.

2. Mohammed Siraj:

Another bowler India will be looking to get wickets in Mohammed Siraj. Siraj has a skill of swinging the ball and getting breakthroughs. In the last India tour of England, Mohammed Siraj took 18 wickets and helped India to win at Lord’s Stadium. Against England, Mohammed Siraj has taken 27 wickets. In India’s bowling unit, Siraj will be an important bowler who can support Bumrah in the middle. 

3. Shoaib Bashir:

Against India, Shoaib Bashir, a young and gifted spinner, made his debut.  Since then, he has picked 17 wickets against India. Sohaib Bashir is a rising talent in the team and can be an effective bowler for the team. England will be counting on Shoaib Bashir to take wickets and destroy India’s batting order.
