Team India Probable Playing 11 Manchester Test: Before the fourth Test against England to be held in Manchester on July 23, the Indian team seems to be troubled by the injuries of the players. Arshdeep Singh will not be available for selection in the fourth Test due to hand injury. At the same time, the chances of Akashdeep playing are also very less.

He has a back problem. After these two, Nitish Reddy has also become a victim of injury. He has a knee injury. Due to this injury, Reddy is in danger of being out of the remaining two matches of the series. If Reddy is out of the series, then the tension of coach Gautam Gambhir and captain Shubman Gill is sure to increase. Actually, it will be a matter of thinking with which playing 11 India will come.
Dhruv Jurel or Shardul Thakur may get a chance

If Reddy is out of the fourth Test, Dhruv Jurel or Shardul Thakur may get a chance. If Rishabh Pant does not recover from his finger injury and comes into the match as a specialist batsman, then Shardul can also be included in the playing 11 along with Jurel. Because India will need a wicketkeeper in place of Pant. However, looking at the videos of Pant that came out on Sunday, it seems that he is fully fit.
Talking about Shardul, he got a chance to play in the first match of the series in which he flopped with both ball and bat. He took 2 wickets and scored 5 runs. At the same time, Jurel only took over the responsibility of keeping in the Lord’s Test. Apart from this, Team India will also have the option of choosing Prasidh Krishna, who could not do anything special in the Leeds Test.
