Virat Kohli was the top scorer in ทางเข้าสล็อต xo the five-match Test series when India toured England in 2018. He scored 593 runs at an average of 59.30.
But his dream run failed to avoid a humiliating 4-1 defeat against a resurgent English side. This was a familiar script since the Pataudi Trophy - named after the illustrious Indian cricketing family, and to be contested when the sides meet in Tests in England - was inaugurated in 2007.
India won the first edition under Rahul Dravid, but were beaten in England in 2011, 2014 and 2018. The visitors will be looking to redeem themselves when they take on Joe Root's side at Trent Bridge on Thursday.
The series will also mark the start of the International Cricket Council's second World Test Championship. India lost the final of the inaugural edition to New Zealand in Southampton in June as batsmen struggled against the moving ball.
England would have watched that match keenly and are likely to serve up a green-top wicket to the visitors. India's batting woes start at the top - opener Shubman Gill has returned home after an injury in a practice match, while another opening candidate, Mayank Agarwal, has been ruled out of the first Test with concussion after being hit by a bouncer in the nets on Monday.
Right-hander KL Rahul is likely to return to partner Rohit Sharma, and will have a point to prove after India preferred Gill over him in their home series against England earlier this year, and also in the Test series in Australia in 2020-21.
Rahul would have played in the third Test in Australia but had to fly home because of an injury.
