The Indian team has left for England as they gear up for their upcoming five-game Test series. Both sides will kick off the new World Test Championship (WTC) cycle 2025-27, and the two teams will hope to get off to a good start.

(Reuters) -England have named a 14-player squad for the first match of the Rothesay Test Series against India, which is set to begin on June 20 at Headingley in Leeds. Ben Stokes will lead the squad as captain and Surrey bowling all-rounder Jamie Overton returns to the Test line-up for the first time since earning his sole cap against New Zealand at Headingley in June 2022.

Jamie Overton has been handed a surprise recall to England's squad for the first Test against India after his Surrey team-mate Gus Atkinson was ruled out with a hamstring strain. Jacob Bethell's return to the squad creates a top-order selection headache,
