Win Projections to be updated soon
On May 25, the next Indian Premier League season is expected to come to an end. The Indian players will have a short turnaround before they travel to England for the five-match Test series. With the red-ball event starting on June 20, the players will have less than a month to recover and adjust.
The Indian Test squad may face greater opposition in their matches in England than they did on their most recent tour in 2021, according to former cricketer Navjot Sidhu.
“Now that the IPL is approaching, that is the thing to be concerned about. Nobody wants to miss the IPL. After they play in the league, the England tour will suddenly arrive. From the North Pole to the South Pole, conditions will change. very different. Additionally, August 4 marked the beginning of India’s final Test series in England. The expiration date this time is August 2 (4). The games will take place in June and July. The ball will have plenty of movement because of the grass, the dampness, and the heavy air. It will then migrate further off the seam,” Sidhu said during a discussion.
All of these will require you to bring a mystery spinner: Navjot Sidhu
In contrast to limited-overs cricket, the former cricket player also emphasised how India’s Test team lacks all-round players.
The primary issue facing India is the lack of all-rounders in the middle order, unlike in white-ball cricket. Is Axar Patel, Hardik Pandya, or Ravindra Jadeja present? Jadeja is the only one of these three, and even he will have limitations. In an innings, will he take four to five wickets? No. The drawback of England is that you will need to carry a mystery spinner with them all. However, India would not reveal Varun Chakravarthy,” Sidhu continued.
In what promises to be an exciting show, practically every member of the regular Indian team will play in the 2025 Indian Premier League. The subsequent long-format matches, however, are just as important to Indian cricket. The way the players handle their workload and performances in the lead-up to the exciting next months will be fascinating to see.
