India take on England in an enticing five-match Test series, which starts from August 01 onwards at Edgbaston. The Tests series is often the most interesting part of India’s England tout and this year it is no different. India come into the series ranked as number one Test side and if they have to stamp their authority on the numero uno spot, then the Virat Kohli-led side will have to dish out a solid performance to unnerve the home team.

The series could well turn out to be decisive in Kohli’s already impressive career. Last time, India faced England in England in Tests, Kohli failed miserably. In ten innings the right-handed batsman managed to score just 134 runs at an average of 13.40.

India take on England in an enticing five-match Test series, which starts from August 01 onwards at Edgbaston. The Tests series is often the most interesting part of India’s England tout and this year it is no different. India come into the series ranked as number one Test side and if they have to stamp their authority on the numero uno spot, then the Virat Kohli-led side will have to dish out a solid performance to unnerve the home team.

The series could well turn out to be decisive in Kohli’s already impressive career. Last time, India faced England in England in Tests, Kohli failed miserably. In ten innings the right-handed batsman managed to score just 134 runs at an average of 13.40. Kohli’s main cause of struggle was his weakness outside the off-stump. England’s bowling spearhead James Anderson during the 2014 tour exploited Kohli’s weakness and often accounted for his wicket.

The India captain no doubt has improved since then and has scored Test centuries on Australia and South Africa tours. Meanwhile, as India look set to face England, Amul’s latest topical has given us a sort of preview.
