India's Test Reserves Lost Chance To Prepare For T20 World Cup

By IANS News June 17, 2021 • 14:53 PM View: 1925

Five members of India's extended Test squad, who were left out of the 15-member squad for World Test Championship (WTC) final, would have spent two months without competitive cricket by the time Test series against England starts in early August.

Four of these - Axar Patel, Washington Sundar, Shardul Thakur, and KL Rahul - are adept at white ball cricket but would instead be watching from the confines of their hotel rooms in England another Indian team playing white ball cricket in Sri Lanka.
