Under the leadership of Virat Kohli, the Indian cricket team is gearing up for the much-awaited 5-match Test series against England, which begins from August 4 in Nottingham. The players have begun preparing for the tour. The majority of them also participated in a 3-day warm-up game against a County Select XI and produced some decent performances.

The tour will be a great test of character for those who get a chance to play against Joe Root’s side. At the same time, it will be a massive learning experience to the reserve players who have travelled to the UK with the 20-man squad.
Arzan Nagwaswalla is one such player who is delighted to train with the likes of Virat Kohli & Rohit Sharma. The Gujarat youngsters became a part of the touring party following his impressive outings for Gujarat in domestic cricket.
In a video shared by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), the 23-year-old summed up his experience and spoke about how it will benefit him in the domestic circuit.
