After the end of IPL 2025, Team India will visit England for the five -match Test series. The first Test match of the series will be played in Headingley from 20 June. Before this series, Team India has already been shocked. India’s two legendary batsmen Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have retired from Test cricket and both of them will no longer be seen playing in the England series.

In the absence of Virat and Rohit, there will be pressure on bowlers to perform well. For this series, India will definitely have their most experienced fast bowler Jaspreet Bumrah and all will have high expectations from them. If Bumrah is able to do well in this series, then he will have a chance to make a special record.

Jasprit Bumrah will have a chance to create history

Jasprit Bumrah can become the most successful Indian Test bowler on England’s land. India has the record for the highest Test wickets in England so far in the name of fast bowler Ishant Sharma. He has taken 48 wickets in 14 Tests. At the same time, Kapil Dev is at number two, who has taken 43 wickets in 13 matches. Bumrah is at number three in this list, playing Test matches in England and has taken 37 wickets in 8 matches so far.

In such a situation, Bumrah will have a chance to overtake Kapil Dev and Ishant. He needs 7 wickets to overtake Kapil Dev and 12 wickets to get ahead of Ishant. Mohammed Shami is at number six with 34 wickets in this list. If he gets a chance to play in the five Tests against England, then he can also reach the top in this list.

How many matches will Bumrah play in England series?

Let us tell you that the Indian squad has not been announced yet for the Test series of these five matches. It is being said that in the end of May, selectors can announce the squad of Team India. It is certain that Bumrah will be a part of Team India for this series, but the biggest question is how many of these five Tests will he play. It is being said that keeping in mind his workload, Bumrah may be rested in two-three matches. Now it will have to be seen how many matches he plays in this series.
