13:32 (IST)

Hello and welcome to our live coverage of Day 1 of the fifth and final Test between England and India at the Edgbaston Cricket Ground in Birmingham. The series returns to action after a gap of nine months, having been put on hold due to a COVID-19 breach in the Indian camp. India, led by Jasprit Bumrah with regular skipper Rohit Sharma out due to COVID, are currently 2-1 up in the series and will eye their first Test series win on English soil in 15 years, and their fourth overall.

Live Score 5th Test Day 1 India vs England today match result, highlight and scoreboard: India were 2-1 up in the five-Test series before a COVID-19 breach in the Indian camp forced the fifth and final Test to get postponed.

Preview: India take on hosts England in the rescheduled fifth Test, starting in Birmingham’s Edgbaston, on Friday (1 July). The fifth Test is a part of the England-India Test series in England last year that was played between August and September. India, then led by Virat Kohli, currently lead the series 2-1 after four Tests. The fifth Test was slated to begin on 10 September, 2021 but was later rescheduled to July this year after COVID-19 cases rocked the Indian camp back then.

A lot has changed for both teams since then. Rohit Sharma took over as all-format skipper from Virat Kohli, and Ravi Shastri handed over the coaching duties to Rahul Dravid. Ben Stokes is England’s new skipper while Brendon McCullum is the hosts’ head coach.

However, last week, Rohit had tested positive for COVID-19 following a Rapid Antigen Test, but Rahul Dravid on Wednesday said that Rohit was not completely ruled out of the Test.

“So the update on Rohit is that he is being monitored by our medical team, he is not yet been ruled out. Obviously, he needs to get the negative test to be available. We will keep monitoring him, we have still got close to 36 hours to go so he will have a test later tonight and one maybe tomorrow morning as well. We will see, it is really up to the medical team and sports science team to decide on that. We will keep monitoring," Dravid said at a media interaction.

There were even reports of pacer Jasprit Bumrah captaining the side in Rohit’s absence, but Dravid said it was for official sources to decide.

Should Bumrah go onto lead the side at Edgbaston, he will become the first fast bowler since Kapil Dev to lead the Team India Test side.
