Before the fifth test in the Oval, which starts only after a three -day gap, most players are struggling to keep their right bodies.
The Anderson-Tendulkar trophy in progress has been the energy of energy for both India and England, and the players have had to strive the four games. There have been concerns about injuries, aptitude and fatigue problems between both groups.
Before the fifth test in the oval, which starts only after a three -day gap, most players are struggling to keep their right bodies and will have their task in a high intensity game to complete an epic series. Therefore, questions have emerged regarding the availability of players from India and England, and there was some clarity during the press conference of both teams last night.
Ben Stokes will probably play for England despite a painful body
The captain of England, Ben Stokes, has given his whole as a marathon bowling player and spells in the last two tests. The consequences of such a working effort were visible in the last two days of the Manchester test when the damage was first withdrew due to an hamstring problem and then grabbed his right shoulder while playing in the third entries.
However, Stokes seemed hopeful of his availability for the final test. You will get a great break after this game and will probably give everything before the ashes in November.
“With luck, it is established and we will be good as gold for the last game. I do not want to eat my words, but the probability that I will not play is very unlikely.”
Stokes has launched 140 overs in the current series, the maximum he has delivered in a test rubber. It comes to the back of surgery and rehabilitation, but did not avoid a punishing workload with the ball.

New faces in the department of rhythm of England
While Stokes could be available as all terrain, England will need some new faces in the department of rhythm after their sprinters had to go through a large workload in the first four games. Chris Woakes and Brydon Crse have played all games, while Jofra Archer has appeared in two consecutive tests after a four -year break. Stokes hinted at the need for fresh legs before the final game.
“These days of recovery will be quite important, and we could have to make some decisions to obtain some fresh legs. But that will not be decided until we approach the last game.”
If England rests their main pacemakers, they have the options of Gus Atkinson, Sam Cook and Jamie Overton, who still do not have a game in this series. Then, they can also remember Josh Language, who was dropped after the first two tests to accommodate Jofra Archer.
Gautam Gambhir offers a massive update about Jasprit Bumrah and other Indian pacemaker
Like England, India has also been in the countryside for a long time in this series, and the Pacers have had fools here and there. Then, Akash Deep, who suffered an injury in the groin, and Arshdeep Singh, who wounded his bowling hand, was not available for Manchester test.
However, Gautam Gamble has clarified that all Indian sprinters are in shape, including Jasprit Bumrah. But later a decision will be made about the inclusion of Bumrah.
“All fast bowling players are in shape. There are no injury concerns. They have not made a decision about whether Jasprit Bumrah will play or not. Ultimately, who plays, will try to do the work for the country.”
Bumrah has already played three games in the series and did not look completely in the Manchester test, which means that it could rest for the final accessory. Since other pacemakers are fit, they can replace Bumrah in the XI to handle their workload and avoid another dismissal of injuries.
Without rishabh pants for the oval test
Meanwhile, Rishabh Pant, who suffered a fracture in his right foot in Manchester, will not be available for the final game. Narayan Jagadeesan will replace it on the team.
However, DHRUV Jurel, who has mainly remained in the last two tests, will probably get a game and play as a Wicktkeeper-Bater in the oval. It has been impressive behind the stumps and is known for its sound batting technique, which makes it an ideal candidate to replace PANT in number 5.
But Pant’s lack of availability leaves a great vacuum in the batting unit, since it was greatly and can change the game within a few overs. Jurel will have his homework in his maiden test on English soil, but the good thing is that he already knows what to expect after maintaining Wickts in Lord’s and Manchester.
