India-Pakistan combined Test XI that can beat England in England

7. Shadab Khan

England v Pakistan: 1st Test - Shadab Khan

Then comes the turn of all-rounders and number 7 spot is occupied by none other than the rising sensation Shadab Khan. He is an all-in-one package, a leggie with killer googly, a handy batsman who tries to imitate Steve Smith, and a sharp fielder to add some energy in the field.

He likes to take on challenges and his oozing confidence makes him the favourite to get picked ahead of Ravindra Jadeja and the veteran Yasir Shah.

8. Hardik Pandya

England v India: Specsavers 2nd Test - Hardik Pandya

When playing in England, a fast-bowling all-rounder is always a necessity. Hardik Pandya is a well-deserved inclusion to fill up our number 8 vacancy. He is well-known for his explosive batting, which is likely to aid when he gets a chance to play with the tail-enders. With a test average of 32, he already has a century up to his sleeves.

His bowling attributes are also imminent. He is fond of learning and has already taken big steps in improving his bowling skills. He has learned the art to impart more pace and swing in his deliveries and can be a good first change-up for our team.
