Hartley handed debut vs. India as England get set for 1st Test

England look to take the lead in their five-Test series against India with the third Test at the Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium.

Fresh off the heroics of Hyderabad, where England turned a 190-run first-innings deficit into a stunning 28-run win, Ben Stokes’ side were humbled by India and Jasprit Bumrah’s brilliance with the ball in the second Test in Vizag, succumbing to a 106-run defeat to leave the series all square.

The two sides now meet in Rajkot in a pivotal encounter as England look to become the first team in more than eleven years to beat India on home soil.
