India

India have Jasprit Bumrah and Rishabh Pant out of the Test match. Gautam Gambhir is likely to tweak, and some changes are expected. Bumrah has been ruled out for workload management, while Pant has gone home after a foot fracture in the last Test.

India have made 4 changes to the side - Karun Nair (for Shardul Thakur), Dhruv Jurel (for Rishabh Pant), Prasidh Krishna (for Anshul Kamboj) and Akash Deep (for Jasprit Bumrah) have returned to the side.

England

The hosts have confirmed four changes to their squad. Ben Stokes has been ruled out with a shoulder injury, joining Jofra Archer, Brydon Carse, and Liam Dawson on the sidelines.

The new faces in the squad are Jamie Overton, Jacob Bethell, Gus Atkinson, and Josh Tongue. Fast-bowling all-rounder Overton strengthens England's seam attack. Ollie Pope is leading the side in Stokes' absence, marking a crucial moment in his leadership journey.
