The New Zealand cricket board has announced their full home international fixture from 2025-2026. Start from October 2025 to March 2026.

New Zealand’s Thrilling 2025–26 International Home Season Full Fixture

June 25, 2025, Leeds. After <a href="https://grand11.in/cricket-breaking-news/england-won-by-5-wickets-bens-149-eng-chased-their-2nd-highest-target/2367" style="text-decoration:none">India lost the first Test at Headingley by five wickets</a>, fast bowler Harshit Rana was dropped from the Test team ahead of the second match against England at Edgbaston.

<h2>Why did Rana drop from the Second Test?</h2>

The 23-year-old Rana did not accompany the team to Birmingham after being plucked from the India A squad as a precaution because of a &quot;niggle&quot; in the main pace group. Rana was sent home because, in the words of head coach Gautam Gambhir, &quot;everything looks fine&quot; in the bowling unit.&nbsp;

The bowler, who made his Test debut in Australia, struggled in England, giving up 99 runs for a single wicket in the unofficial match for India. He only took four wickets in two games at an average of 50.75. A.

<h2>Indian Bowlers&#39; Performance In The First Test in Leeds</h2>

Except for Jasprit Bumrah, India&#39;s bowling was ineffective in the first Test match at Headingley, allowing England to chase down 371 with unexpected ease. Gambhir&#39;s remarks supported the original choice to include Rana in the team mainly as a cover player rather than a front-line option.

<h3>Series Replacement Strategy&nbsp;</h3>

<ul>
	<li style="list-style-type:disc">The team&#39;s backup pace plan has been modified since Rana returned to India. Gambhir stated that the bowling approach will be finalized after a conversation with the chairman of selectors.</li>
	<li style="list-style-type:disc">Focus moves to Edgbaston: Following the Headingley defeat, India will have a little window of time to reflect and re-strategize as the <a href="https://grand11.in/cricket-breaking-news/eng-vs-ind-2nd-test-match-2025-dream11-prediction/2368" style="text-decoration:none">second Test of the England v India test match starts on July 2 at Edgbaston</a>.&nbsp;</li>
	<li style="list-style-type:disc">Bowling boost is planned: There is increasing pressure to adjust the pace-spinning balance for the forthcoming game due to the struggles of pacers like Prasidh Krishna and Shardul Thakur.</li>
</ul>

&nbsp;

The Indians' pacers bowlers Harshit Rana have been ruled out from the second test against England on July 2 in Edgbaston, after losing in Leeds.

ENG v IND 2025 1st Test Day 4: Pant-KL’s Ton, England Got Target Of 371

<a href="https://grand11.in/cricket-breaking-news/eng-v-ind-2025-1st-test-day-4-pant-kls-ton-england-got-target-of-371/2366" style="text-decoration:none">On Day 4 of the first Test match against England</a>, India&#39;s dynamic wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant made history by being the first Asian wicketkeeper to achieve hundreds in both innings of a Test match.

With a counterattacking 118 in the second inning after his first-innings 101, Pant showed not only his innate ability but also his developing maturity in red-ball cricket. Pant became just the third wicketkeeper in Test history to achieve this feat with this effort, behind Les Ames (England) and Andy Flower (Zimbabwe).

<h2>A Knock of Aggression</h2>

With KL Rahul, Pant took leadership as India lost early wickets in the second innings. Pant used a combination of aggressive strokes and responsible defense to launch a brilliant attack on the English bowlers as the game was perfectly balanced. Reverse sweeps, gutsy pulls, and his signature one-handed sixes were all part of his innings.

14 boundaries and two sixes are scattered throughout Pant&#39;s 118 (from 143 balls). More significantly, it gave India the upper hand and gave England a challenging target of 371 runs.

<h3>A Historic Milestone</h3>

For Asian wicketkeepers, who have historically been seen more as glovemen than as powerful batsmen, Pant&#39;s achievement is significant. While having great records, legends like MS Dhoni, Moin Khan, and Kumar Sangakkara (before becoming a specialist batter) were unable to achieve the twin-century mark in a single Test match.

This knock has given Pant:

<ul>
	<li style="list-style-type:disc">Scored his eighth and ninth hundreds in Test matches.</li>
	<li style="list-style-type:disc">Broke MS Dhoni&#39;s record for the most hundreds scored while playing for India as a wicketkeeper abroad.</li>
	<li style="list-style-type:disc">Make history by being the first Asian wicketkeeper to reach the hundred-run mark in both innings in England.</li>

<h2>Day 3 Summary</h2>

<h3>Bumrah&rsquo;s impact and India&rsquo;s bowling fightback, England all out scored 465</h3>

England finished at 465, just 6 runs behind India&#39;s first-inning 471. Harry Brook put up the most impressive display of the day with a magnificent 99, painfully missing a century at home by just one run. Fortunately, he survived several drops (stories range from three to four) before being ejected.

Chris Woakes (38) and Jamie Smith (40) assisted in the late recovery after Ollie Pope scored a calm 106. Woakes achieved the noteworthy feat of 2,000 Test runs and 150 wickets.

Jasprit Bumrah became the first Asian bowler to reach 150 wickets in SENA countries with a five-wicket haul (5 for 83), which is comparable to Kapil Dev&#39;s achievement under the same circumstances. India missed several catches despite its valiant efforts, including reprieves for Brook, which were crucial in helping England close the distance.&nbsp;

<h3>India has a slight above with lead of 96 runs</h3>

India recovered a small lead to lead by 96 runs at stumps, reaching 90/2. With an undefeated score of 47, KL Rahul led the innings and displayed poise and serenity. Early wickets were taken by England&#39;s bowlers, including a crucial hit from Ben Stokes, who dismissed Yashasvi Jaiswal cheaply and Sai Sudharsan after he reached thirty. Rain forced the day&#39;s play to conclude early, with India in control.&nbsp;

<h2>Overview Day 3: England And India Are Still Tied At The End</h2>

India has a little lead after a difficult batting performance and an incredible five-wicket haul from Jasprit Bumrah, but England and India are still tied at the end of Day 3 of the first Test in Leeds.

ENG v IND 2025 1st Test Day 3: Bumrah’s 5, England All Out Scored 465

On June 22, 2025, Jasprit Bumrah became the first Asian bowler to take 150 Test wickets in SENA nations (South Africa, England, New Zealand, and Australia) in a momentous occasion for Indian cricket. On the <a href="https://grand11.in/cricket-breaking-news/eng-v-ind-2025-1st-test-day-3-bumrahs-5-england-all-out-scored-465/2364" style="text-decoration:none">third day of the first Test match against England at Headingley, Leeds</a>, he accomplished this uncommon feat.

<h2>How Did He Achieve This Milestone?</h2>

England finished their first innings with 465, almost matching India&#39;s score of 471, thanks in large part to Bumrah&#39;s 5-wicket haul (5/83). Behind the stats, however, his milestone moment was characterized by a spell of outstanding skill, control, and continuous pressure. He achieved this by surpassing a number of renowned Asian bowlers who struggled with SENA conditions, which are typically advantageous for fast bowlers but frequently harsh for subcontinental visiting teams.

<h2>Consistency Among SENA Countries</h2>

Bumrah&#39;s rise to 150 wickets in SENA nations provides proof of his range and skill in unfamiliar environments. Bumrah has continuously produced game-winning performances in pace-friendly settings since making his Test debut in South Africa in 2018:

<ul>
	<li style="list-style-type:disc">He played a key role in India&#39;s historic series victories in Australia in 2018&ndash;19 and 2020&ndash;21.</li>
	<li style="list-style-type:disc">He has had some standout runs in England, notably a nine-wicket haul at The Oval in 2021.</li>
	<li style="list-style-type:disc">His 2021&ndash;22 campaign in South Africa featured yet another five-wicket haul.</li>
	<li style="list-style-type:disc">But India&#39;s difficulties, Bumrah&#39;s ability to extract bounce and swing, made him stand out in New Zealand.</li>
</ul>

With just 38 Test matches played, Bumrah has claimed 150 wickets in these nations, ranking among the top visiting pacers in terms of average and strike rate.

<h3>Standing Among Legends</h3>

The record for most Indian wickets in SENA countries was held by the great Kapil Dev before Bumrah, but he never made it to 150. Bumrah currently stands alone as an Asian pioneer as well as an Indian pacesetter. In SENA countries, even greats like Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis, Muttiah Muralitharan, and Anil Kumble were unable to reach this level.&nbsp;
