Ravindra Jadeja, KL Rahul ruled out of 2nd India vs England Test; Sarfaraz Khan gets maiden call-up

In a significant development for the Indian cricket team, key players Ravindra Jadeja and KL Rahul have been declared unfit to participate in the upcoming second Test against England, scheduled to begin on February 2 in Vizag. Jadeja's absence comes as a result of a hamstring injury he sustained during the fourth day of the first Test in Hyderabad, while Rahul has been experiencing discomfort due to right quadriceps pain.

The BCCI Medical Team is actively monitoring the condition of both players, ensuring they receive the necessary care and attention. This unfortunate turn of events has prompted the Men's Selection Committee to bring in reinforcements to the Indian squad.

Sarfaraz Khan, Sourabh Kumar, and Washington Sundar have been added to the lineup to bolster the team's composition in light of these injuries. Their inclusion is expected to add depth and versatility to the squad, compensating for the loss of Jadeja and Rahul's expertise.

India's updated Squad for 2nd Test vs England: Rohit Sharma (C), Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shreyas Iyer, KS Bharat (WK), Dhruv Jurel (WK), Ravichandran Ashwin, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohd. Siraj, Mukesh Kumar, Jasprit Bumrah (VC), Avesh Khan, Rajat Patidar, Sarfaraz Khan, Washington Sundar, Saurabh Kumar.
