Why Ben Stokes-Led England Will Be A Greater Threat To India In Rescheduled Test

When India toured England last year, they made a highly impressive effort for most of the four matches they featured. But for the Headingley Test, in which they were rolled over for 78 on Day 1, they dominated the series. India began with an impressive draw in Nottingham, took the lead with a famous win at Lord's, and reclaimed the advantage after the Headingley disaster with a 157-run win at The Oval. 2-1 up in the series, India have a great chance of registering their first Test series in the country since 2007. All they need is a draw to achieve that feat. However, many things have changed since India left England's shores in September last year. During their previous visit, India were led by Virat Kohli. His struggles with the bat haven't changed in all these months. Having quit as captain, India will now be led by Rohit Sharma, who is Team India's all-format captain (when fit and not resting). England, too have a new captain, with Joe Root having given up the role following the team's Ashes disaster. How big will this significant change play when India meets England in the Birmingham Test?
