Jofra Archer to continue, Liam Dawson for Shoaib Bashir

England goes to Manchester to win the 5 -game test series against India. Already at the top of 2-1, with a victory in the fourth test, the Ben Stokes team can bring the deadly to Old Trafford. England had made a change for the Lord’s test and will be forced to redo their XI.

Replacement spinner

One of the changes will be to replace Shoaib Bashir. The conference was excluded from the India VS England test series with a finger injury. Liam Dawson was announced as his replacement. In the past, Dawson was taken with the team and was not played. But in the past 12 months approximately, he said directly to the council that he would only be part of the team if it was guaranteed a place.

Therefore, it is sure to assume that Dawson would play. In addition, he is the only spinner on the team. Joe Root is not more than a part -time time and only played 28.1 Overs in 6 sleeves. It is a locking.

Jofra Archer to continue, Chris Woakes

Jofra Archer should continue. Admittedly, it has upset 39.2 overs at Lord’s, but an 8 -day break should be sufficient for it to be 100%. Archer played with real venom, and his control improved over the match. Since he had only played 18 overs for Surrey, Archer should be fresh. He also wants to play the Manchester test.

“I can play the other two (test matches) if they leave me. I don’t want to lose this series and said to Keysy (the director general of the ECB, Rob Key) that I wanted to play the summer of the test “,” Archer had said after the Lord’s test.

However, a player would be abandoned. And it will be Chris Woakes. Given a good versatile in England, the 36 -year -old was miserably with the bat and the ball. Its speed dropped from around 5 to 10 km / h. Woakes has never been tight with its lines and, even on useful surfaces, has not extracted a lot from the surface. He was also forgotten with the new ball. With the bat, he scored 60 points in 5 rounds.

Playing Woakes at Old Trafford, which could be another flat window, does not seem wise. England is likely to bring Gus Atkinson. It has been their best stimulator since its test starts in July 2024 and has 55 counters in just 12 games. Atkinson was injured, and that is why he did not play, but as he was added, without a doubt, he will play.
