IND vs ENG 2nd Test: A five-match Test series is being played between India and England. The England team won the first match of this series by 28 runs. With this they are ahead 1-0 in this series. Meanwhile, the English team has suffered a big setback. A star player of his team is out of the next test match due to injury. This could prove to be a big blow for England. This player is none other than experienced spinner Jack Leach. Jack Leach is officially out on Wednesday. Team captain Ben Stokes has confirmed this before the Test match to be played in Visakhapatnam.
What did the team captain say?
Speaking on Jack Leach’s injury ahead of the second Test, Ben Stokes said, “He has been ruled out of the second Test. Unfortunately, the injury he sustained left him with a hematoma in his leg. It’s a very bad thing for us.” And I feel bad for Jack too, obviously he was out of the game for a long time with a back injury and he came back in the first game of this series, but the injury again obviously makes it disappointing. But it is something that we are assessing every day. The medical team is paying attention to him and hopefully it is not something that is too serious and does not keep him out for a long time in the series.
England has the lead
England team is in lead against India. In such a situation, he might be trying to put more pressure on Team India by winning the second test match also. There are many players in the England team who can easily replace Jack Leach. Now it will be very interesting to see which player Ben Stokes gives a chance in the playing 11 in the second test match.
England’s playing 11 could be like this
Jack Crawley, Ben Duckett, Ollie Pope, Joe Root, Jonny Bairstow, Ben Stokes (c), Ben Fox (wk), Tom Hartley, Shoaib Bashir, Rehan Ahmed, James Anderson
