Pune | May 24, 2025: The BCCI has unveiled India’s squad for the five-match Test series against England, marking the dawn of a new leadership era with Shubman Gill as captain and Gautam Gambhir as head coach. The bold decision signals a generational shift in Indian cricket, as Gill steps up to lead a talented and youthful side into one of the toughest overseas challenges.
Beginning June 20 at Headingley, the Test series presents India with a perfect chance to turn around past events.The last time India clinched a Test series in England was back in 2007 under Rahul Dravid’s captaincy—an 18-year drought they are determined to end. With a balanced squad blending experience and youth, including names like Rishabh Pant, Jasprit Bumrah, and promising players like Sai Sudarshan and Nitish Reddy, hopes are high.
This series not only tests India’s bench strength but also symbolizes a fresh start. All eyes will be on how Captain Gill handles the pressure and whether Coach Gambhir’s strategy brings the winning edge. If successful, this campaign could go down as a defining chapter in Indian cricket’s modern history.
With fresh leadership and a hunger to end an 18-year wait, Team India enters this England series with optimism, talent, and a point to prove. The stage is set for a new chapter in Test cricket—led by youth, powered by ambition.
