LONDON, June 30, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - England named an unchanged team for the 
second Test against India starting at Edgbaston on Wednesday, as Jofra Archer 
was made to wait for his return.

Ben Stokes' men won the opening match of a five-Test series by five wickets 
last week after chasing down 371 on the final day at Headingley.

Archer has not played Test cricket since February 2021 but had been called 
into the squad after bowling his first red-ball overs for four years in 
Sussex's County Championship draw against Durham last week.

However, the 30-year-old was forced to miss Monday's training session due to 
a family emergency.
