By Mumbai Indians

The wait is over. The red ball is polished, the whites are out and after nearly two months, India is back in business in Tests! 🔥 Even better, Team India returns to home soil in whites after almost a year! How’s the Josh? High Sirr!

And guess what? Our very own BOOM BOOM Bumrah headlines the squad! 💥 The man who bends time with his toe-crushers has a spicy record against the West Indies. Just two Tests, but 13 wickets at a jaw-dropping average of 9.23, including that unforgettable hat-trick at Sabina Park in 2019. One phrase to describe 👉 Pure domination

Shubman Gill takes charge as captain, with Ravindra Jadeja as his deputy, while the blend of youth and experience gives this squad a serious edge. Adding to the buzz, Devdutt Padikkal makes his comeback in the Test setup.

With flair from Yashasvi Jaiswal, calm from KL Rahul, fresh energy from Sai Sudharsan and the power-packed all-round depth of Sundar, Axar and NKR! This team looks ready to light up the longest format. 😎
