Revealed: Why Jack Leach is not bowling in the 4th innings against India

Jack Leach did not open the bowling with Mark Wood in the fourth innings and it was Joe Root who was handed the ball by England skipper Ben Stokes to open the bowling. Joe Root took a four-fer in the Indian first innings and was brilliant with the ball. However, the reason behind Jack Leach’s absence from the bowling has been revealed as the off-spinner was not found pairing with Mark Wood with the new ball.

Jack Leach was found struggling with his left leg on the very first day’s play and was also found heavily bandaged ahead of the third day’s play. He also came out to bat in the third innings with a swollen leg. His leg injury is the reason that he was not introduced to bowl with the new ball in the very first spell. However, keeping his leg in concern, he will bowl in the match after a few spells.
