The wait for the thrilling England-India Test series ended after the two teams began play at Headingly, Leeds. The Tendulkar-Anderson Trophy is one of the most anticipated series, with a new generation of Indian players in the spotlight.

The team is being led by Shubman Gill, who was named the captain after the retirement of Rohit Sharma. The team also doesn't have the services of Virat Kohli and R Ashwin, who have also retired from the format. India are short on experience, but not on quality, and can give England a run for their money.

Meanwhile, the fans were very excited for the series, but poor graphics left them disappointed.

The netizens took to social media to lash out at the broadcasters for ruining their viewing experience.

Meanwhile, England won the toss and opted to field. India handed Sai Sudharsan his maiden cap, while Karun Nair also made a comeback after seven years. India snubbed Nitish Reddy and Kuldeep Yadav and included Ravindra Jadeja and Shardul Thakur. Jasprit Bumrah, Prasidh Krishna, and Mohammed Siraj were the three pacers in the playing XI.

"Would've bowled first as well, might be a bit tough in the first session but it should be good to bat on later.

Sun is out, should be a good batting deck for us. Preperation has been amazing, we played a practice game in Beckenham, lads are feeling great. Sai makes his debut, Karun comes in. Sai will bat at three," said Gill at the toss.

England (Playing XI): Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett, Ollie Pope, Joe Root, Harry Brook, Ben Stokes(c), Jamie Smith(w), Chris Woakes, Brydon Carse, Josh Tongue, Shoaib Bashir

India (Playing XI): Yashasvi Jaiswal, KL Rahul, Sai Sudharsan, Shubman Gill(c), Rishabh Pant(w), Karun Nair, Ravindra Jadeja, Shardul Thakur, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, Prasidh Krishna
