Church Crisis
The resignation of the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, over historic abuse allegations is a moment of reckoning for the Church of England.
The England cricket team unveiled its playing XI against India on Thursday, ahead of the fourth test in Ranchi. The team has made two changes to this test.
The visitors have made two changes: speed bowler Ollie Robinson has replaced Mark Wood, and spinner Sohaib Bashir has taken the place of Rehan Ahmed.
With this XI, the England team wants to regain control of the series after losing badly to India in Rajkot. The final test of this series will be played in Dharamsala.
Meanwhile, despite a disappointing season, the squad has kept Jonny Bairstow.
