When is India vs England 1st Test starting? Date and venue listed for next IND vs ENG Test listed

India are set to face England for a five-match Test series, starting on June 20. The series will see the commencement of a new World Test Championship (WTC) cycle for the Men in Blue, after failing to qualify for the finals of the previous one due to a disheartening series loss to Australia.

A relatively younger side led by the new skipper Shubman Gill will look to start their campaign on a high, as they look to win a series on English soil after 18 long years.

India will be without the services of two of their modern-day cricketing giants - Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli - as they look to adapt to life post their respective retirements from the Test format.

England, on the other hand, haven't lost a Test series at home to India since 2007. Ben Stokes and co. will look to continue the streak by putting up a dominating performance throughout the series.
