Both sides will have different captains this time. While India are set to be led by Rohit Sharma, England will play under the leadership of Ben Stokes and both sides will be keen to put their best. However, the participation of the Indian skipper has been put under cloud as he tested positive last night for COVID-19. 

India is currently playing a four-day warm-up game against Leicestershire to prepare themselves for the Test whereas England on the other hand is currently playing New Zealand in the third Test in Leeds.
