The Test matches come thick and fast once the series has kicked off and the hosts India will be hoping for a change of fortunes at the same venue as the first Test where they were beaten by the visiting England side comprehensively by 227 runs.
England skipper Joe Root smashed a commanding double century to out-bat the hosts and help his side in posting a mammoth first innings total, the key to dominating in sub-continent conditions. While England will be without their wicket-keeper batsman Jos Buttler and star bowler Jofra Archer, India will be happy to have the services of Axar Patel back after he was declared fit before the second Test. Not just the series, the second Test is also very crucial from the point of view of the World Test Championship (WTC), as the host slipped to fourth place after the loss in the first Test.
