Leach doubtful for second Test in India

England spinner Jack Leach is a significant doubt for the second Test against India because of a knee injury sustained in the first Test.

Leach hurt his left knee fielding in Hyderabad, but was still able to bowl 10 overs in the second innings as England sealed a remarkable 28-run win.

He did not bowl in training on Wednesday as England prepare for the second Test in Visakhapatnam on Friday.

Leach’s absence could lead to a debut for Somerset team-mate Shoaib Bashir.
