Wicketkeeper Jamie Smith: England have announced their playing XI for the opening Test of the five-match series against India, with the familiar opening pair of Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett set to take charge at the top of the order.
The first Test will begin on June 20 at Headingley, Leeds, as England look to make a strong start in home conditions against a fresh-look Indian side.
The decision to persist with Crawley and Duckett comes as little surprise, with both openers coming into the series in red-hot form. The duo was instrumental in England’s win over Zimbabwe in their recent four-day Test, putting together a double-century opening stand and notching up individual centuries.
