The Leicestershire County Cricket Club had even posted a video of the members of Team India making their way to the stadium for a practice session. They captioned it, "Welcome @BCCI, It's a pleasure to have you at Uptonsteel County Ground this week".

While the whole team was seen entering the ground, the cameraman was seen waiting for the former Indian captain Virat Kohli who made a solo entry after the rest of the team.

While many praised the batter's swag, the current skipper fans were unhappy with the attention Kohli was still getting. Some even called out Leicestershire's cameraman's obsession with Kohli and urged the English county to focus on Rohit Sharma instead.

Talking about the clash, the rescheduled Test match will begin on July 1 after which India will play three ODIs and as many T20Is in England.

The two-Test teams will be playing under new skippers as the English side saw Joe Root step down as their captain with Ben Stokes taking over.
