Kathmandu – After the match in Manchester ended in a draw, England has included Jamie Overton in the squad for the fifth Test against India.

Although England’s bowlers were given 257.1 overs to dismiss India in the fourth Test, they were unable to capitalize on the opportunity.

Jofra Archer replaced Josh Tongue, who had played in the earlier Tests. Similarly, Liam Dawson was brought into the squad in place of Shoaib Bashir.

In the fourth Test, Chris Woakes bowled 167 overs, Brydon Carse bowled 155 overs, and Ben Stokes bowled 140 overs.
