Virat Kohli's Team India is scheduled to take on Joe Root’s England in a five-match Test series to begin with the first Test from 4 August at Trent Bridge in Nottingham.
The fans and expert who are excited to see Virat Kohli and Co. back in action, are keeping themselves busy by predicting the playing XIs, results and other aspects.
Veteran India off-spinner Harbhajan Singh is one of them as in his latest YouTube video he predicted the results of the five Test matches between India and England and explained why he feels India will be able to win the series.
“India definitely has the team to succeed there. Yes, they lost against New Zealand which was a one-off game, where India did not play well. If this Indian team wins on England shores, they will stand out from the rest,” Harbhajan said in his latest YouTube video.
The 41-year-old then predicted what he feels will happen in the upcoming Test series as he feels Indians will manage to win two or three Test matches and one contest will be a draw.
“I hope this team performs well and wins the series. My prediction is that India will definitely win two or three Test matches and one contest will be a draw. Even if the series is drawn, it will be a huge gain because of the challenging conditions,” the off-spinner said.
“Batting would be very important as the responsibility will be on Kohli, Rohit and Pujara. If they score runs, then we have bowlers to bowl out England,” he added.
Thus, it will be interesting to see how England perform against this Indian team as they had lost their last home series against New Zealand and this time they will be without Ben Stokes as he is on an indefinite break from the sport owing to his mental health issues.
