The first Test is all set to start from June 20, Friday and it will be held at Headingley, Leeds in England. The Indian Team is going through a transition and the responsibility is huge on the youngsters.

After the two legends retired, the captaincy baton has been passed on to Shubman Gill with Rishabh Pant as the vice-captain.
