IND vs ENG 1st Test Predicted Playing XI: India is all set to play their first Test match against England at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Thursday (Jan 25). It will be a tough challenge for the English cricket team. India has been an extremely dominant force in their home conditions, and they haven't lost a Test series since 2012. Interestingly, England is the last team that has won a Test series in India. They did it under the captaincy of Alastair Cook. India will face a strong challenge from England in the upcoming Test series, as Virat Kohli, a crucial middle-order batsman, has withdrawn from the first two matches for personal reasons. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has requested that the matter be kept private. The question on everyone's mind is who will replace Kohli in the Indian team. ALSO READ | India vs England 1st Test: Check full weather forecast and pitch report for Rajiv Gandhi Stadium in Hyderabad Several options are available for the Men in Blue, with Shreyas Iyer being one of the ideal candidates. Iyer is known for his incredible prowess against spin bowling, which could work in his favour. Alternatively, KL Rahul could be a viable option to bat in the number four position, depending on the conditions and match situation. England has made a bold decision by selecting three spinners in their bowling XI. They have decided to bench James Anderson and instead have chosen Mark Wood to accompany Jack Leach, Rehan Ahmed, and Tom Hartly. India may also consider the same strategy, but it would be a daring move, especially after the impressive performance of Mohammed Siraj, Mukesh Kumar, and Jasprit Bumrah in the second Test match against South Africa in Cape Town. If India decides to go with two pacers, they will choose between Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav. In a pre-match press conference, India captain Rohit Sharma expressed his temptation to select Kuldeep. But he added that Axar Patel can provide batting depth in case of a top-order collapse. India's Predicted Playing XI in IND vs ENG 1st Test Rohit Sharma, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul, KS Bharat, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel/Kuldeep Yadav, Ravichandran Ashwin, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj England's Predicted Playing XI for IND vs ENG 1st Test Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett, Ollie Pope, Joe Root, Jonny Bairstow, Ben Stokes (C), Ben Foakes, Rehan Ahmed, Tom Hartley, Mark Wood, Jack Leach (With inputs from agencies)

Test matches between India and Australia have been high-voltage encounters in recent times and Australia spinner Nathan Lyon feels he can play a "massive" role in his team`s effort to win over India in a Test series in the future.

India had defeated Australia by three wickets against all odds in the final Test at The Gabba in January this year to take the series 2-1. Australia was to tour India in October this year but the schedule was altered after the T20 World Cup took the slot.

"One of the big goals is I'd really like to be part of an Australian team that can win a Test series in India," Sydney Morning Herald quoted Lyon as saying.

"I think I can play a massive role in that as well. That`s definitely one of my big goals. I think that`s one of the big goals team-wise. That is a big focus," he added.

Lyon, who is one wicket away from 400 Test scalps, admitted that Australia didn`t play to their potential when India toured last year in December.

"I don`t think we did the basics well enough for long enough -- that`s purely what it comes down to. We didn`t take our chances when we created the chances in the field," said Lyon.

"In Test cricket, I`ve played enough of it to realise if you do the basics for a long period of time and challenge people`s defence you`ll create chances here and there. That`s one big area we can get better," he added.

Lyon is gearing for the Ashes which will see England and Australia locking horns in the five matches, beginning December 8 at the Gabba, Brisbane.&nbsp;
