The senior Indian side is set to take on India A to begin their England tour. The 4-day Test match is scheduled from June 13 to June 16 at the Kent County Cricket Ground in Beckenham.
The India A squad, led by Abhimanyu Easwaran, includes the likes of Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sarfaraz Khan, and Dhruv Jurel. On the other hand, the senior team under the leadership of Shubman Gill will be looking to sharpen their rhythm after the IPL season.
India vs India A start time
