There seems to be no end for England cricket team’s injury woes as yet another pacer may have been injured. Five frontline bowlers are already battling injuries and are unlikely to be a part of the five-match Test series against India. The series will commence on June 20, with Headingley, Leeds all set to host the 1st Test.

Josh Tongue was forced to walk off the field after bowling just four overs during the India A vs England Lions 2nd unofficial Test. The incident occurred in the 2nd innings of the game where the fast bowler had to hobble off the field after bowling just 4 overs and conceding 27 runs. As per ESPNCricinfo, the extent of Tongue’s injury is yet to be determined.
It is pertinent to point out that Tongue is a part of the England’s main squad for the upcoming series against India.
