India had no choice but to make significant roster changes for the second Test matchup with England. Both batter KL Rahul, who reported experiencing pain in his right quadriceps, and all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja, who suffered a hamstring injury on the fourth day of the first Test in Hyderabad, were ruled out of the second Test, which is scheduled to start on February 2 in Visakhapatnam. As a result, the selectors decided to include three players in the squad for the following match: left-arm spinner Sourabh Kumar, all-rounder Washington Sundar, and batter Sarfaraz Khan. Former Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh hinted that the Vizag will serve up a spinning track after the updated squad was revealed.
