A call on pacer Jasprit Bumrah playing the second Test will be taken in the next 24 hours, but India assistant coach Ryan ten Doeschate is pretty sure that his team will take the field with two spinners at Edgbaston.

There is a growing clamour to include wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav in the playing XI but to maintain the batting depth, Washington Sundar is also in the mix to start alongside Ravindra Jadeja. "He's [Bumrah] available for the game obviously. We know from the start he's only going to play three out of the five.
But given conditions and workload and how we think we can best manage for the next four games, we haven't made a call on that. We're going to see what the other guys are with their workload as well. Sorry, I can't give you a more firm answer. But we'll work out in the next 24 hours," he said.
