The Shubman Gill-led Indian cricket team took off for England from Mumbai on Friday for a five-match Test series, part of the 2025-27 ICC World Test Championship cycle.
The series, to commence on June 20, will be played at Headingley in Leeds, Edgbaston in Birmingham, Lord's and The Oval in London, and Old Trafford in Manchester.
India have not won a series in England since 2007. India's last tour to England in 2021 ended in a 2-2 draw.
This will be India's first Test series since both Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli announced their retirement from Test cricket last month.
Several Indian players who are part of the Test squad, are already in England representing India A in three warm-up matches against the England Lions, the first of which ended in a draw. Comeback man Karun Nair hit a double century in the opening unofficial Test.
The second unofficial Test is set to begin on Friday, June 6, at the County Ground in Northampton.
India's Test squad for England tour: Shubman Gill (c), Rishabh Pant (vc), Yashasvi Jaiswal, KL Rahul, Sai Sudharsan, Abhimanyu Easwaran, Karun Nair, Nitish Reddy, Ravindra Jadeja, Dhruv Jurel, Washington Sundar, Shardul Thakur, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, Prasidh Krishna, Akash Deep, Arshdeep Singh, Kuldeep Yadav.
