Root and Silverwood have faced sharp criticism following England's dismal show in the ongoing Ashes series, which the visitors trail 0-3.
Silverwood was due to miss the fourth Test against England starting in Sydney on Wednesday after he was forced into isolation when a family member tested positive for COVID-19.
Current head coach Chris Silverwood's job hangs in balance as England's Ashes hopes went up in smoke in 12 days after Australia retained the Urn with an innings and 14-run win in just two days and a session in the Boxing Day Test earlier this week.
England coach Chris Silverwood said India will be a difficult team to beat but it is still possible.
England have avoided touring Pakistan since 2005-06 citing security concerns but of late the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has expressed hope of visiting the country in two years' time.
Andrew Strauss will temporarily step aside from England and Wales Cricket Board director as his wife undergoes cancer treatment. England coach Andy Flower will take on Strauss' tasks over the coming months.
Silverwood would not start his stint until the New Year i.e only after the five-match Ashes series Down Under.
