India A set to play 3 four-day matches in England, Test regulars to feature amid lack of red-ball practice: Report

Hindustan Times  

In a bid to address their Test cricket woes, the BCCI has planned three four-day matches against England Lions between the conclusion of IPL on May 25 and the start of the Test series in England on June 20, according to a report from ESPNCricinfo. BCCI optimistic for strong Lions Adding to the challenge, India’s batters will have just one Ranji Trophy game before joining the ODI squad for the England series. While the T20 Blast window in England may affect the quality of opposition for India A, the BCCI remains optimistic about England Lions’ strength. Their confidence stems from the reciprocal arrangements with the ECB, which saw a strong side facing Lions during their tour of India alongside England’s Test team in 2023-24 season. The England Lions’ 2023-24 opposition featured Indian talents like Sarfaraz Khan, Dhruv Jurel, Akash Deep, and Prasidh Krishna, all of whom later debuted in Tests.
