Meanwhile, both Singh and Sharma have shared great camaraderie, both on and off the field. The two shared the Indian dressing room for several years and they both played a major role in the team's T20 World Cup win in 2007.

Team India are set to take on hosts England in the rescheduled fifth Test of their series. The much-awaited contest begins July 1 at Edgbaston, Birmingham.

The visitors currently lead the five-match series 2-1 and have a significant chance of securing yet another monumental series win on English soil. Sharma will lead the Indian side in the crucial encounter.

Following the red-ball fixture, the two cricketing giants will then lock horns in three T20Is and as many ODIs. The visitors are playing a four-day warm-up fixture against Leicestershire.

India are currently at 90/5 on Day 1 with Virat Kohli (9) batting alongside KS Bharat (6).
