India batter Mayank Agarwal has been added to the squad for the rescheduled Test against England slated to begin on 1st July, 2022 in Birmingham.
“The All-India Senior Selection Committee has added Mayank Agarwal to India’s Test squad for the rescheduled fifth Test as cover for captain Rohit Sharma, who tested positive for COVID-19. Mayank has left for the UK and will link up with the squad in Birmingham,” the BCCi said in a statement.
Skipper Rohit Sharma had tested positive for COVID-19 earlier and is in isolation. It is not confirmed whether he would be able to take part in the match.
It is most likely that Jasprit Bumrah would be leading the side if Sharma is not available but the official confirmation about the same is yet to come.
The visitors currently lead the series 2-1.
India’s Test squad: Rohit Sharma (Captain), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, Hanuma Vihari, Cheteshwar Pujara, Rishabh Pant (wk), KS Bharat (wk), Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Shardul Thakur, Mohd Shami, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohd Siraj, Umesh Yadav, Prasidh Krishna, Mayank Agarwal
