<p>India has to win the test match in order to salvage something from the series after England defeated them 2-1 in the T20I series. India had played two Test matches in June and September of last year in England and Australia, and both of those four-day matches ended in draws.</p>



<p>The Indian women's team has not had enough red-ball exposure; in comparison, England have had more recent red-ball experience, since their previous game was against Australia in the Women's Ashes in June of this year.</p>

<p>Vice-captain Smriti Mandhana stated that Muzumdar, who was named head coach in October of this year, had been preparing the Indian women with the red ball despite their absence from red-ball cricket for the last 24 months. The team participated in a four-day intrasquad game in addition to a training camp in Bengaluru.</p>



<p>England have more red-ball cricket experience but India is actively having practice sessions with red-ball under coach Muzumdar. We must anticipate healthy competition between them. Down below is the IND-W vs ENG-W 1st Test Dream11 Prediction, Dream11 Team, and Dr. DY Patil Sports Academy Pitch Report.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="ind-w-vs-eng-w-1st-test-dream-11-prediction"><strong>IND-W vs ENG-W 1st Test Dream11 Prediction:</strong></h2>



<p>The Dream11 Prediction for the IND-W vs ENG-W 1st Test match is to make a balanced Dream11 Team. Pick more batters than bowlers but don?t forget to include spinners in your team as the conditions will greatly support them. Smriti Mandhana and Tammy Beaumont are the batters to watch out for, and Renuka Singh and Sophie Ecclestone are the bowlers to watch out for in the test match.</p>

<p>The pitch and outfield have been prepared with plenty of care - 200 tonnes of soil was flown in from South Africa to ensure a bouncy and true pitch. Trusted bounce off the surface, batting-friendly conditions, and usually flatter surface but the spinner may produce some spin after the second day. Expect good runs on the first two days and batting first will be a wise choice after winning the toss.</p>

<p>'Ben Stokes of the team,' called by Muzumdar, Deepti scored 87 runs and claimed 9 wickets in the match. England were bowled out by India for 136 runs in the first innings and 131 runs in the second innings. Below is the day-wise match review of the IND vs ENG test of the England Women Tour of India. </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="ind-vs-eng-test-match-overview"><strong>IND vs ENG Test: Match Overview</strong></h2>



<p><strong>DAY 1: </strong>After winning the toss, India women chose to bat first and lost a few quick wickets in the form of their openers. Still, the hitters that came after made substantial contributions. After lunch, Shubha Satheesh and Jemimah Rodrigues were bowled despite putting together a strong partnership for the third wicket. </p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2023/12/Deepti-1.jpg" alt="IND vs ENG Test: Deepti Stars as India Women Beat England Women by XXX runs | England Women Tour of India 2023" class="wp-image-123724" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Deepti Sharma and Sneh Rana (BCCI)</figcaption></figure>



<p>Later, Yastika and Harmanpreet also put up a respectable partnership, however, Harmanpreet ended up in an unfortunate run-out dismissal. In the last session, Deepti also reached her fifty, and India finished with 410/7 on Day 1.</p>



<p><strong>DAY 2:</strong> India could add only 18 runs to their overnight score and India Women were all out for 428 in the first innings. England came to bat and Renuka Singh did what she is known for! She picked up Dunkley and Pooja found Heather Knight's pads right in the front of the stumps. Soon, an excellent throw by Pooja Vastrakar sent back Tammy Beaumont. </p>



<p>Nat Sciver was the only batter to go over 20 runs from the England line-up. She smashed 59 runs off 70 balls but didn't get any support from the other end. England were 126 for 4 wickets down at one stage and got bundled out for just 136, having lost their last six wickets for 10 runs.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2023/12/372655-1.jpg" alt="IND vs ENG Test: Deepti Stars as India Women Beat England Women by 347 runs | England Women Tour of India 2023" class="wp-image-123726" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">IND vs ENG Test: (BCCI)</figcaption></figure>



<p>The parade began when Deepti Sharma was introduced into the attack and bowled a magnificent spell of 5/7 in only 5.3 overs. Compared to all the other spinners in this test thus far, she discovered a much greater turn of over 4? when the ball impacted outside of the off stump. She was responsible for India's 292-run advantage in the first innings.</p>



<p>India refused to impose a follow-on and thereafter continued adding runs through the order, building on their lead. India was once down to 136/6 after Charlie Dean bowled superbly and claimed a four-fer. However, the duo of Pooja Vastrakar and skipper Harmanpreet Kaur took the lead to 479 at the Stumps on Day 2. Day 2 saw the fall of 19 wickets as there was more turn for spinners.</p>



<p><strong>DAY 3:</strong> India declared the overnight score and now the target for England was 480 runs. It was Renuka Singh again who drew the first blood and this time, she bowled out Tammy Beaumont on the 7th over. Pooja Vastrakar got the ball in her hand and she claimed three wickets in just 3 overs. </p>

<p>Rajeshwari Gaikwad picked up a wicket in the middle and then it was all open for Deepti Sharma. She took the next four wickets within a blink of an eye and Rajeshwari Gaikwad took the last wicket to hand India the highest margin win in Women's test cricket. India won the match by 347 runs.</p>

IND vs ENG Test: Deepti Stars as India Women Beat England Women by 347 runs | England Women Tour of India 2023

ind-vs-eng-test-deepti-stars-as-india-women-beat-england-women-by-347-runs-england-women-tour-of-india-2023

<p><strong>IND vs ENG Test: </strong>Team India is scheduled to assemble in Hyderabad on January 20 for the upcoming test series against England, which starts on January 25. The team will undergo a couple of net sessions followed by a practice game before taking on England in the first test in Hyderabad.</p>



<p>The Indian side is currently engaged in a three-match T20I series against Afghanistan. The third game of the series is underway with India already sealing the first two matches. Post the contest, which is underway in Bengaluru, all the players will have a few days break before joining the test match camp in Hyderabad.</p>



<p>On January 20, the Indian side will have net sessions immediately followed by a four-day practice match at the Uppal Stadium in Hyderabad. </p>



<p>The Indian players are reported to be available for the net session on January 20. Virat Kohli will have a day break after undergoing a net session, to attend the Ram Temple Consecration ceremony on January 22. The right-handed batter has already received permission from the BCCI for the same.</p>



<p>Senior all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja has moved to the National Cricket Academy (NCA) to get complete fitness ahead of the India vs England test. Reportedly, Jadeja has cancelled all his commercial engagements in a bid for the time being in order to focus on the upcoming series.</p>



<p>The India vs England five-match test series begins in Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on January 25. The two sides will then head to Vishakhapatnam for the second game. The third and fourth fixtures of the series will be held in Rajkot and Ranchi followed by the last contest in Dharmshala.</p>



<p>Talking about England's preparation ahead of the crucial five-match series, the Englishmen are scheduled to arrive in the host city on January 21. The late arrival of the England contingent has drawn a fair bit of criticism from the experts. </p>



<p>Steve Harmison, former England cricketer, reckons England stands in danger of losing the test series 5-0 to India.</p>



<p>"I'm an old man and that's what they're going to say, the times have changed. But preparation hasn't changed. You cannot go into India underprepared, you cannot go into India over-prepared. You could be in India six weeks before and still not be prepared for that first Test and the emotion of that," said Harmison.</p>

IND vs ENG Test: Team India asked to assemble on January 20 in Hyderabad for England Test

ind-vs-eng-test-team-india-asked-to-assemble-on-january-20-in-hyderabad-for-england-test

<p><strong>IND vs ENG, 1st Test: 3 Players to Watch Out For: </strong>Team India is set to lock horns against England in the five-match test series, starting January 25. The two sides will huddle in Hyderabad at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium for the 1st Test, the preparations of which are underway. While the Indian side was asked to re-group on January 20th, the Englishmen arrived in the host city late on Sunday after warming up in Abu Dhabi.</p>



<p>India's record in home tests has been impeccable. The side hasn't lost a single red-ball series since 2012. In fact, India has only lost three test matches since 2012 on home soil.</p>



<p>It is noteworthy that it was England that turned its tale up during the 2012 tour and defeated India by 2-1. However, after the 2012 series, India's record has been second to none. Not only at home, the Indians have shown their prowess in foreign lands as well in the last few years.</p>



<p>Ahead of the 1st India vs England test in Hyderabad, Team India is scheduled to undergo a four-day practice session in a bid to complete their preparations for the upcoming tests. </p>



<p>Below is this article, let's have a look at key players from the Indian side: 3 Players to Watch Out For during India vs England 1st Test.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>3 Players to Watch Out For</strong> <strong>During India vs England Test</strong></h2>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Rohit Sharma</strong></h3>

<p>Team India will look forward to their captain, Rohit Sharma, providing solid starts more often than not. In the past, Rohit has been sensational and he needs to turn up the heat once again with his blade itching to go against England. </p>



<p>Rohit Sharma's home record in test matches is one of the best. He is sometimes compared with Sir Don Bradman, such has been the calibre of the Indian captain at home. With his sharp skill to negate the spinning conditions, Rohit Sharma becomes a vital cog in India's batting lineup.</p>



<p>The right-handed batter scored 345 runs against England when they last toured India in 2021, which included an innings of 161 runs in Chennai.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>R Ashwin</strong></h3>

<p>When the conditions favour spin, India's R Ashwin becomes a menace. He is one of those guys, who can easily take wickets in bundles and turn the table upside down. Although there may be some confusion among people on R Ashwin's place in the white-ball squad, there isn't even a single shadow of doubt when it comes to his place in the test outfit, especially in home conditions.</p>



<p>The right-arm off-spinner is just 10 wickets away from claiming a massive 500 wickets in the test cricket. He is likely to complete this milestone in the upcoming series against England. Moreover, Ashwin has scalped 88 wickets against England in test matches along with a century with the bat in hand.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>KL Rahul</strong></h3>

<p>Multi-dimensional KL Rahul is going to play as a genuine wicketkeeper batter in the test matches for the first time. Rahul has played test cricket, so far as a better, but now he is geared up to fulfil the role of wicketkeeper as well.</p>



<p>Often it is said that India's middle order is fragile, and often breaks down when put under stress. However, with the presence of a solid batter with the capabilities of KL Rahul, the team gains enormous confidence to negate any dire situation.</p>



<p>KL Rahul has featured in 19 home tests so far in which he has scored 923 runs at an average of 40.13. The glovesman has mustered eight half-centuries along with a century in his 19 outings.</p>

IND vs ENG, 1st Test: 3 Players to Watch Out For | India vs England Test

ind-vs-eng-1st-test-3-players-to-watch-out-for-india-vs-england-test

<p><strong>IND vs ENG: </strong>The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on January 22 confirmed that Virat Kohli has pulled out of the first two test matches between India and England for personal reasons. The batter will not be available for selection in the first two games against England, which begins on January 25 and February 02 respectively.</p>



<p>While Virat Kohli's absence can be seen as a massive blow to the team, it can also be a blessing in disguise for the players, who were earlier overlooked during the squad selection.</p>



<p>The BCCI is set to announce a replacement player soon.</p>



<p>It is impossible to find a perfect replacement player for Virat Kohli from the Indian setup. Still, the BCCI would love to get someone who can take up the responsibility of number 4 immediately.</p>



<p>Virat Kohli was due to complete 2000 runs against England in the upcoming test, as he was just nine runs short of completing the milestone. He would be the only 3rd Indian batter to score more than 2000 runs in test games against England.</p>



<p>Below is the list of 3 Players who can replace Virat Kohli in the Indian side during the India vs England test matches:</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>3 Players who can replace Virat Kohli for India vs England Test</strong></h2>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Rajat Patidar</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/01/Rajat-Patidar-1-1024x576.jpg" alt="IND vs ENG: Cheteshwar Pujara to RETURN, 3 Players who can replace Virat Kohli for India vs England test" class="wp-image-125530" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">PTI Photo</figcaption></figure>



<p>Madhya Pradesh batter Rajat Patidar appears to be one of the frontrunners to replace Virat Kohli for the 1st two test matches against England. The batter generally plays at number 4 for his side in Ranji Trophy games and has also been included in the India A squad to face the England Lions.</p>



<p>Patidar has already made a name for himself by scoring big in the last two Ranji Trophy seasons. While he scored 658 runs in the 2021-22 season, his run ended after scoring 565 runs in the last season.</p>



<p>Talking about his overall First Class stats, the batter has scored 4000 runs in 93 innings for his side at an average of 45.97. Patidar has notched up 12 centuries and 22 half-centuries on his way to 4000 FC runs.</p>



<p>Moreover, to add to his records, Rajat Patidar has also plundered a century while opening the innings against England Lions during a Tour Match in Ahmedabad.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Cheteshwar Pujara</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/12/Cheteshwar-Pujara.jpg" alt="IND vs ENG: Cheteshwar Pujara to RETURN, 3 Players who can replace Virat Kohli for India vs England test" class="wp-image-98754" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">AP photo</figcaption></figure>



<p>Although veteran batter Cheteshwar Pujara has been sidelined following his poor run in the World Test Championship 2023, he can still storm back into the side after Virat Kohli marks his absence for the first two games against England.</p>



<p>To advocate for his comeback, Cheteshwar Pujara has amassed 444 runs in the ongoing Ranji Trophy for his team Saurashtra. The 35-year-old batter has plundered an unbeaten double ton along with a half-century for his side.</p>



<p>The Indian side will need someone who binds the top order with the middle order, the role which Virat Kohli does, and Pujara can be a worthy replacement if the BCCI makes up its mind to call the veteran.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Abhimanyu Eshwaran</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2021/07/Abhimanyu-Easwaran.jpg" alt="IND vs ENG: Cheteshwar Pujara to RETURN, 3 Players who can replace Virat Kohli for India vs England test" class="wp-image-65386" /></figure>



<p>Abhimanyu Eshwaran is currently leading the India A against England Lions in the tour game. The batter has featured in the Indian test setup for the last two years but hasn't made his debut yet. </p>



<p>He was part of India's red-ball setup during the recent South Africa tour but got dropped for the upcoming test series against England. The Uttar Pradesh batter can earn another India call-up as a replacement for Virat Kohli.</p>



<p>Abhimanyu has loads of first-class experience under his belt. With over 6500 runs in the FC after playing 155 innings at an impressive average of 46.40, Eshwaran holds a proper chance to storm into the Indian side and mark his debut.</p>
