4th Test: Pant to not keep wickets due to foot injury, available to bat as per team requirements

MANCHESTER: India vice-captain Rishabh Pant won’t keep wickets in the ongoing fourth Test against England at Old Trafford because of a right foot injury, but he’s available to bat as per the team’s requirements, said the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).

Pant initially didn’t join the team ahead of Day Two’s play, and later came to the ground with a moonboot on his right foot. The BCCI also said Dhruv Jurel will take up wicket-keeping duties in Pant’s absence. Incidentally, at Lord’s, Jurel filled in as the substitute keeper after a left index finger injury kept Pant out of keeping duties.
