Trouble Mounts For Shubman And Co

After Arshdeep, Akash Deep sustains injury with Kamboj joining as a cover; Nitish likely to be ruled out of series

With the crucial fourth Test at Old Trafford Cricket Stadium in Manchester only a couple of days away, India's troubles only seem to be mounting. Amid all the uncertainties over pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah's participation in the match and a cut in Arshdeep Singh's bowling hand, which required stitches, the visitors now have to deal with Akash Deep's injury.

Given the situation they are in, Shubman Gill and Co have added Haryana pacer Anshul Kamboj to the squad for the fourth match scheduled to begin on Wednesday. The pacer reached Manchester on Sunday. What also does not help their case is that all-rounder Nitish Reddy is likely to be ruled out of the series due to injury.
