Suryakumar Yadav has received his maiden Test team call-up and he along with opener Prithvi Shaw will be flying to England as replacements sought by the team management after three players were ruled out due to injury.

Shubman Gill, Washington Sundar and Avesh Khan have been forced out from the ongoing tour. The Test series is due to start on August 4. While Gill was ruled out due to shin splints suffered during the World Test Championship final against New Zealand, Khan dislocated a thumb during the warm-up game against County XI. Sundar aggravated his finger injury.
