ENG vs IND 5th test
England team announced for the last match against India, these players are included.
England on Tuesday announced the 13-member squad for the last match of the five-match series against India on Tuesday. No changes have been made in the team. Ole Pope and Chris Woakes have also been included in the team announced for this test. This match will be played on the Oval ground in London from September 7. Let's say that former captain Alastair Cook will be seen playing cricket for the international team in London for the last time. He announced retirement from International Cricket on Monday.
Pope is currently associated with his county team Surrey and he will play the ODI against Essex. He will join the England team on Thursday for the 5th Test. If the Indian team wants to end the tour by winning the match, on the other hand, the English team will want to give their former captain and the most senior player Alistair Cook a winning farewell.
However, the 5th match of the series is just a formality, as England beat India by 60 runs on the fourth day of the Southampton Test and make an unbeatable 3-1 lead in the series. India had the target of 245 in the fourth innings, but the team was reduced to 184 in their second innings. Earlier, after losing by 31 runs in Edgbaston and by the difference in the Loders, Virat Kohli's team won the third Test in Nottingham by 203 runs.
Team: Joe Root (captain), Moin Ali, James Anderson, Johnny Bairstow, Stuart Broad, Jos Buttler, Alastair Cook, Sam Karan, Keaton Jennings, Oli Pope, Adil Rashid, Ben Stokes and Chris Woakes.
