England’s super spinner Jack Leach has been ruled out of the second Test against India. Spinner Jack Leach has been ruled out of the upcoming match due to a knee injury. Leach injured his knee while fielding on the second day of the first Test in Hyderabad. Despite the discomfort and pain, Leach bowled ten overs in the second innings and took one wicket.
Captain Ben Stokes confirmed the news and informed that the medical team is constantly monitoring Leach’s condition. It is expected that the star will miss the upcoming matches as well.
Stokes hinted that Shoaib Bashir will make his debut in place of Leach. Bashir missed the first test due to delay in visa approval. He arrived in India a few days after the start of the first Test.
McCullum warned that if India prepares a spin pitch, they will play all four of their spinners. “The team is in the reckoning for the second Test. If the spin pitch itself is prepared, we will not hesitate to play all four spinners,” McCullum said.
