India are set to play a five-day Test match against England in Birmingham starting on July 1. Team India captain Rohit Sharma and veteran player Ravindra Jadeja are also back in the squad along side Kohli. Key players like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah and more, all were rested for the five-match T20I series against the Proteas, in which Rishabh Pant is leading the Men in Blue.

While the white-ball squad are playing a home series against South Africa, the members of the red-ball squad left for England for the rescheduled Test against England. The England vs India match will be counted as the fifth Test of India's 2021 series against England. The Men in Blue currently lead the Test series by 2-1. The scheduled final Test was postponed at the last minute after a Covid-19 outbreak in the Indian camp.

India will travel to England for 6 white ball matches, including 3 ODIs and T20Is each and one Test match starting on July 1.
