India's Mohammed Shami will most likely miss the first two Tests against England that commence January 25 owing to his ankle injury, The Indian Express reported on Monday. 

The report also provided an update on T20I star Suryakumar Yadav. Yadav, who has been out of action since the third T20I against South Africa in Johannesburg, is suffering from hernia and will reportedly undergo surgery. 

The report quoted a BCCI source as saying, 'Shami hasn’t even started to bowl, he will have to go to NCA and prove his fitness. He looks doubtful for the first two Tests against England.' 

The source added, 'Whereas in Yadav’s case he will take more time than expected. After his hernia operation it might take up to eight-nine weeks for him to start training. Hopefully he will be fit during the IPL.'
