Stumper Ishan Kishan's absence from the team after reportedly asking for a break, continued as the national selectors named Uttar Pradesh's Dhruv Jurel as the lone fresh face in the Indian squad for the first two Tests against England.
The selectors also recalled Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel in the spin-heavy squad along with the regulars Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja. Ashwin, a veteran of 95 Tests is 10 shy of achieving 500 wickets, and the fivematch series against England could help him get to the landmarks.
