IND vs ENG 2nd Test weather report: Some 621 km East to Hyderabad, Rohit Sharma's India will look to bounce back in the Test series against England. After facing a disappointing loss to kickstart the five-match series in Hyderabad, Rohit Sharma's troops line up for the second game near India's eastern border in Visakhapatnam with a 1-1 scoreline in their minds.
India would be ruing for the fact that they conceded the Test match after being 190 runs ahead in the first innings. An Ollie Pope sensation put them off their plans which was followed by a poor batting display in the chase, resulting in the hosts folding out for 202 in their pursuit of 231. As they look for a comeback, the Men in Blue might be having an eye on the sky as well.

India looking to replace Rahul and Jadeja
