England vs India: After Shubman Gill, Avesh Khan, another player Ruled Out of England Tests

The Indian team in England was dealt another injury blow on Thursday when spin bowling all-rounder Washington Sundar was ruled out of the five-Test series beginning August 4. Washington is the third player after Shubman Gill and Avesh Khan to be ruled out of the tour.

It has been learnt that Washington has fractured a finger after being hit by a Mohammed Siraj delivery on the second day of the first class warm up game between India and County XI. “Yes Washy has a fractured finger just like Avesh who had a thumb dislocation.

Both are out of Test series and will go home,” a senior BCCI official told media on conditions of anonymity. He will also take at least five weeks to start bowling and so no point keeping them here,” the source said. It is understood that the short ball from Siraj that accounted for Washington hit his fingers harder than expected and he was in excruciating pain after returning to pavilion.
