Team India: Team India is currently playing the ODI series under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma on the Sri Lanka tour. After the Sri Lanka tour, Team India has to make its next two tours to Australia and England to play Test cricket.

The board along with the players of Team India have started their preparations for the Australia tour, but after Australia, the selection committee is soon going to start the process of shortlisting 15 players for the 5 Test match series to be held on the England tour in the year 2025.

The recent performance of Team India in the Test series in England has not been anything special. Team India has not won a Test series on England soil since 2007. Due to which it is believed that the selection committee may soon shortlist 15 players and order them to prepare for the England tour next year.

England Test series will be played after WTC Final 2025

If we look at the current cycle of the World Test Championship (WTC 2023-25), it certainly seems that Team India will qualify for the final of the World Test Championship 2025. If this happens, then Team India will get a chance to play a high-pressure match before the start of the Test series against England, which can prove to be very useful for the players of Team India to make themselves comfortable in the conditions of England.

Team India's Test captain may change from England Test series

The current captain of Team India, Rohit Sharma, is now 37 years old. In such a situation, if Rohit Sharma makes Team India the champion by reaching the final of the World Test Championship 2025, then this can greatly increase the chances that Rohit Sharma announces his retirement after the final of the World Test Championship 2025 (WTC FINAL 2025).

Due to which it is believed that Shubman Gill can be seen taking big responsibility as the new Test captain of Team India during the England Test series to be held between June to August 2025.
