“The BCCI Medical Team is monitoring his progress,” said the board. Ahead of the upcoming fourth test in Manchester, the Men’s Selection Committee has added Anshul Kamboj to the squad.

Shubman Gill-led India suffered a 22-run victory in the Lord’s Test and trails the series 1-2 in the five match series.

Jadeja put up a fight to help India stage a fightback after being 112/8 in the chase of 193. However, Siraj’s dismissal by Shoaib Bashir has left the all-rounders efforts in vain.

India has deployed three all-rounders. In the Edgbaston and Lord’s Test, Jadeja Washington Sundar, and Nitish Kumar Reddy played in the same playing Xl.
