England got off to the perfect start in the series, beating India by 28 runs in Hyderabad. Stellar performances from Ollie Pope (196) and left-arm spinner Tom Hartley (7/62) were the stand-outs. Another win in Visakhapatnam will well and truly put the visitors in the driving seat.
The days ahead of the first test had been marred by the unavailability of England spinner Shoaib Bashir, whose visa to enter India was delayed thanks to his Pakistani heritage. However, his clearance soon came through, and the off-spinner is set to make his England debut in the second Test.

England went with a combination of three spinners and one pacer in the first Test, with Joe Root providing a part-time spinning option. Coach Brendon McCullum had earlier floated the idea of naming an all-spin attack for the second Test, but as far as the composition of the bowling is concerned, it remains the same.
Left-arm spinner Jack Leach injured his knee in the first Test, and as a result will miss out in Visakhapatnam. Somerset off-spinner Shoaib Bashir has been named as his replacement. In addition, Mark Wood has been replaced by experienced seamer James Anderson.
Bashir’s first-class career is not much to write home about; in six matches for his county side, he has taken 10 wickets, at an unimpressive average of 67. Despite this, he was picked by the England think-tank due to his height and release point. After the success of Tom Hartley in the first Test, they will hopeful that Bashir can perform well.
This still remains one of the most inexperienced spin attack to have visited India in quite a while. Rehan Ahmed is playing just his third Test, Hartley his second and Bashir his first.
