Mancheste: India all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy has been ruled out of the remaining two England Tests owing to a left knee injury, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) confirmed on Monday.
Nitish will fly back home, and the team wishes him a speedy recovery, it added.
Reddy, who missed the first Test but played in the second and third, had a quiet outing in Birmingham; he made key contributions at Lord’s, both with bat and ball. His absence could open the door for Shardul Thakur, who played the first Test, to return.
Adding to India’s woes, left-arm pacer Arshdeep Singh has been ruled out of the fourth Test against England at Manchester. “He sustained an impact injury to his left thumb while bowling in the nets at a training session in Beckenham. The BCCI medical team is monitoring his progress,” BCCI said in a release.
To fill-up for Arshdeep’s absence, the men’s selection committee has added Haryana pacer Anshul Kamboj to the squad. Kamboj has joined the team in Manchester. IANS
