The English Cricket Board stated that there will be two changes in the team with Anderson replacing Wood and Jack Leach to make way for debutant Shoaib Bashir ahead of the IND vs ENG 2nd Test. Jack Leach is ruled out due to a knee injury

The visitors announced their playing XI for the IND vs ENG 2nd Test which will kick start on January 2. Veteran speedster James Anderson will return to the side by replacing Mark Wood. England is leading the five-match test series against India by 1-0 after securing a win in the first test match by 28 runs.
Mark Wood was the only fast bowler in the England team during the first test match. Also, he went wicketless in that match as England spinners bagged all the Indian wickets.
