England Spinner Jack Leach Ruled Out Of IND vs ENG 2nd Test With Knee Injury

ABP News  

England's Jack Leach has been sidelined for the upcoming IND vs ENG 2nd Test in Vizag, owing to an injury, thereby presenting an opportunity for his Somerset colleague, Shoaib Bashir, to possibly mark his debut on the international stage. Despite sustaining an injury to his left knee during the 1st Test in Hyderabad, Leach bowled 10 overs in the second innings, clinching a crucial wicket as England secured a historic 28-run victory over India. England head coach Brendon McCullum has already indicated that his team might field an all-spin attack in the IND vs ENG 2nd Test in Vizag, particularly if the ball turns as sharply as it did in the opening Test in Hyderabad. Jack Leach being sidelined from IND vs ENG 2nd Test due to a knee injury potentially paved the way for Shoaib Bashir to make his international debut in Vizag.
