New Delhi: India and England are all set to lock horns across five Test matches. Both sides kick off the World Test Championship (WTC) 2025-27 cycle from June 20. The first Test of the series will be held at Headingley in Leeds, and both sides will be looking to put in a good performance in the upcoming series.
With the upcoming series looming on the horizon, one of the most anticipated battles on the field would be when ace India pacer Jasprit Bumrah takes on England’s batting attack. There is no doubt that Bumrah is one of the best pacers in world cricket currently, and it could prove to be quite the task for England to take on Bumrah.
However, England’s Test skipper, Ben Stokes, took centre stage and revealed that there is no fear within the English batters around Bumrah and that they are completely prepared to take on the ace pacer.
“No fear, I don’t think one bowler alone is going to win the series for either team. All 11 [players] have to stand up. I don’t think there is just one person in either team holding the key to success,” Ben Stokes said ahead of the first Test.
