India’s Test Series Against England Hit by Double Blow: Virat Kohli Withdraws, Shreyas Iyer Injured in Training

Last day, India’s reliable batsman Virat Kohli announced his withdrawal from the first two matches of the Test series against England. Kohli’s withdrawal was due to personal reasons. Kohli’s absence is a big blow for India when they go to play against the mighty England.

Now after Kohli’s withdrawal, another disappointing news has come for the Indian team. It has now been reported that one of the star batsmen of the Indian team has been injured while training ahead of the first match of the Test series against England.
