He subsequently made his test debut against India in the first match of the test series at Hyderabad in January 2024. He was able to take only two wickets in the first innings of his debut test but then registered his first five-wicket haul during the second innings where he eventually took seven wickets. This seven-second-innings wicket haul was the best by an England spinner on debut since Jim Laker in 1948.
