Virat Kohli will lead the Indian cricket team against England

Virat Kohli took a paternity leave after the Adelaide Test match against Australia. While the team performed well in his absence, Kohli will captain the side in the upcoming home series against England.

The BCCI has named a star-studded Indian squad for the first two Tests against England. Along with Virat Kohli, Hardik Pandya has returned to the Test squad. Both Virat and Hardik became fathers recently.

It will be interesting to see if Kohli can return to his past form and end his drought of centuries after his daughter's birth.
