Jack Leach to Miss Remaining India Tests Due to Knee Injury
England's key spinner, Jack Leach, has been ruled out of the rest of the series against India, dealing a significant blow to the team's chances.
- Jack Leach sustained a knee injury during the first test in Hyderabad, leading to his withdrawal from the series.
- The England and Wales Cricket Board has decided not to call up a replacement for Leach, relying instead on the young spin trio of Hartley, Bashir, and Ahmed.
- Leach's injury is a major setback for England, already missing Harry Brook for personal reasons and India without key players like Virat Kohli and Rishabh Pant.
- Leach will return to the UK for rehabilitation, working closely with the England and Somerset medical teams.
- The series is currently tied at 1-1, with the third test in Rajkot starting Thursday.
