I guess you have never watched a single seris in England? Because these are the exact bowled who excel in those conditions. Even RP singh etc were beast there

RP Singh is ten times the bowler of Shankar's calibre

Maybe. But English conditions are such that any bits and pieces  bowler with swing can dominate over fast bowlers who bowl gun barrel straight

This is my ideal 11 for English conditions:

 

Vihari

Rohit 

Gill

Kohli

Pant

Sundar (as batsman) 

Ashwin

Thakur

Bhuvi (if no bhuvi then consider siraj)

Shami

Bumrah 

 

Depth in batting deep. Good swing bowling. Pace and bounce. Perfect. Option of spin.

Since I have the permission to be unrealistic, here is my take:

 

Rohit

Shaw/KLR

KLR/Vihari

Sundar

Agarwal

Gill

Pant

Ashwin

Bhuvi (if fit)

Shami

Siraj

 

Batting till 9. and 4 + 1 bowling options.

Bhuvi is fit but there is no point keeping him in the 11 for Eng series.       Coz he in the squad for the SL T20 and ODI series.  With bio bubble and/or similar restrictions, there is no chance of him playing against Eng in any of the tests.  Same with Pandya.

Outstanding team honestly. Would pump paper champs. No offence to them. They did not play India's best side I England. Plus having that filthy pos individual alone is a massive disadvantage. Even with that individual we would best every team with this squad above.

dravid 

sachin 

virat 

ganguly 

hardik 

ashwin 

zaheer 

bhuvi
