James Anderson & Stuart Broad have been recalled into the final playing eleven that will take the field against New Zealand on June 2
Durham opener Alex Lees and Yorkshire seamer Matthew Fisher are called-up for the first time.
With 168 completed Test matches and 639 wickets -- the highest ever by a pace bowler -- the 39-year-old Anderson is still England's most potent bowler in the longest format of the game as he continues to shoulder the bulk of the burden in the ongoing Ashes series.
England are 1-0 behind in the Ashes after losing in Brisbane and need to win the second Test in Adelaide.
England are 0-1 down in the five-Test series, having lost the Brisbane Test by nine wickets.
Silverwood and England captain Joe Root have been criticised for dropping the duo for the opening Ashes Test at Brisbane, which Australia won by nine wickets to take a 1-0 lead in the five-Test series.
By not playing the series opener, the team management feels Anderson can be better prepared for the subsequent pink-ball Test in Adelaide.
The final match of the series was cancelled when a physio in the Indian camp tested positive ahead of the game, making the visiting players apprehensive, though all of them tested negative.
The 39-year-old Anderson bagged 15 wickets, behind Jasprit Bumrah (18 wickets) and Ollie Robinson (21 wickets) for most wickets in the series.
England bowler James Anderson took a tumble while bowling in the fourth Test against India at The Oval.
The 39-year-old paceman had stains on his right knee, presumably from a fall while bowling.
Kohli was one of India's three batsmen whom Anderson dismissed in a fiery spell in the third Test in which India were dismissed for just 78 runs in the first innings.
The 32-year-old India No. 4 batsman has aggregated 124 in the five innings of the first three Tests at an average of 24.8.
At the age of 39, Anderson has already bowled more number of overs in the first three Tests than any of the Indian seamers has bowled.
Robinson exploited the second new ball on the fourth morning en route splendid bowling figures of 26-6-65-5
Overall, Anderson now has 630 wickets to his name in Test cricket and stands third in the all-time list
Anderson's masterclass was full on display in an awe-inspiring spell of 8-5-6-3 with the new ball as England bowled India out for 78.
The veteran pacer was at his best (8-5-6-3) as he used the conditions to perfection to blow away India's top-order as India were knocked over for 78 in little over 40 overs.
Anderson (8-5-6-3) then did what he does best -- messed with the minds of the top-order batsmen in a sharp eight-over morning spell getting three wickets and then passing on the baton to the younger lot which didn't disappoint him.
