The Indian squad for the five-Test series in England will be announced on Saturday. While as per several media reports, Shubman Gill may pip his nearest rival Jasprit Bumrah as the new captain in the traditional format, this is the first high-profile squad announcement after Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli announced their retirements from red-ball cricket.
&nbsp;
It is understood that chairman of selectors Ajit Agarkar is all set to announce the squad, which will comprise 16 or 17 members. B Sai Sudharsan is set to become the rookie face in the Test squad, along with T20 specialist left-arm swing bowler Arshdeep Singh.&nbsp;The England series will mark the start of India&rsquo;s campaign in the 2025&ndash;27 World Test Championship cycle.
