India v England 1st Test – India Predicted XI

2. Gautam Gambhir:

At 35, the aggressive Delhi opener is all set to take guard in the first match after a good comeback. Gautam Gambhir’s comeback is one of the most inspiring stories around the cricketing circles now. He is an excellent player of spin and his experience will come in handy in the series and the fact that he needs to do well here to maintain his place will definitely see better results for the team.

Gambhir lit up the last match of the New Zealand series with a quick-fire fifty in the second innings. That knock and his most recent performance in the Ranji Trophy will definitely give him a lot of confidence to score in this series which also tends to decide his future in Indian cricket.
