England leg-spinner Adil Rashid's stunning form in white ball cricket could earn him a recall to Test cricket in the upcoming five-match Test rubber against India, starting August 1. Interestingly, the 30-year-old Rashid last played Test cricket in the 2016 series against the Indians before being overlooked for the home series against South Africa and the West Indies as well as the subsequent Ashes tour.

England though have struggled to settle on a spinner this year, with all of Moeen Ali, Mason Crane, Jack Leach and Dom Bess taking up the role at various points. While the leggie has recently signed a white-ball-only deal with his county side Yorkshire, Rashid hasn't completely ruled out a return to the longest format if given a chance.
