(Reuters) -England have named an unchanged team on Monday for the second test against India, set to begin on July 2 at Edgbaston, with fast bowler Jofra Archer remaining sidelined. The England and Wales Cricket Board retained the lineup that secured a five-wicket win at Headingley to take a 1-0 lead in the five-match series.

Archer has not played Test cricket since 2021 and will now push for a place in the side for the third Test against India after missing out at Edgbaston

Jofra Archer's test return was deferred after England named an unchanged side to play India in the second test at Edgbaston from Wednesday. The fast bowler has not played a test since 2021 and rejoined the squad last week.
