England is worried about the fitness of off -spinner Shoaib Bashir who was injured during bowling on the third day of the third Test match between India and England. Bashir was tied on the fourth and fifth finger on the fourth and fifth finger during the fourth day’s game, but it is not clear whether he would fit for batting or not.
On the fourth day, a statement issued by England said that, after his left finger injury, Shoaib Bashir is being monitored and hopefully he will bowl in the fourth innings of the Test. Whether or not he will bat in the third innings, the decision will be taken when the time comes. His participation in the fourth Test to be held at Emirates Old Trafford will be assessed at the end of the match.
It is noteworthy that Bashir was hurt while bowling Ravindra Jadeja when Jadeja hit a powerful drive directly towards him. Bashir’s hand suffered a strong injury despite technically having a chance of cot and bold. After this, his over Joe Root completed the over.
Lokesh Rahul scored a century at Lord’s, which managed to equal 387 runs of England’s first innings on the third day of the third Test match. After Jadeja scored a third consecutive half -century, Chris Woakes was caught behind the wicket in an attempt to give a glass in the leg side. Akash was managed to trick Deep with the help of DRS of two LBW decisions given by the ground umpire but he was dismissed after hitting a six.
