England spinner Jack Leach to return home to deal with illness

By Saurabh Sharma January 15, 2020 • 11:29 AM View: 831

London, Jan 15: England spinner Jack Leach will miss the remaining part of the South Africa tour and will return home immediately. The left arm spinner has struggled to gain full recovery from sepsis he picked up during the tour of New Zealand in November 2019. Leach later also suffered from gastroenteritis and flu ahead of the first Test against South Africa at Centurion last month.

The Somerset spinner has failed to attain the level of fitness required for selection.
