The first Test match between India and England was played at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad in which the hosts lost by 28 runs. The performance of the Indian team in the first test was very disappointing and that is why the team could not win this match.

Now the second test match between these two teams is starting from 2nd February in Visakhapatnam. However, before the second test, the Indian team has suffered two major setbacks. In the second test match, brilliant wicketkeeper batsmen KL Rahul and Ravindra Jadeja will not be seen playing for the Indian team. Both these players will not take part in the second test match due to injury.

Let us tell you, Ravindra Jadeja has been ruled out of the second Test due to hamstring injury while KL Rahul has complained of pain in his straight quadriceps. The Indian team has suffered a big blow due to the exclusion of Jadeja and Rahul because both of them are important players of the team. Not only this, in place of these two players, Sarfaraz Khan, Washington Sundar and Saurabh Kumar have also been included in the team.

Jadeja and KL Rahul out of second test against England

Let us tell you, Indian team’s experienced batsman Virat Kohli had already told that he will not be able to participate in the first two tests due to personal reasons. It is very important for the Indian team to win the second test but before that two of their players have been injured.

Talking about the first test match, KL Rahul’s performance for the Indian team was very good. He played a brilliant inning of 86 runs for the Indian team in the first innings while he scored 22 runs in the second innings. Talking about Ravindra Jadeja, he took 5 wickets in both the innings of the first test while scoring a total of 89 runs. The hosts will miss these two players a lot.
