England spinner Leach out of second India Test with knee injury

England's Jack Leach has been ruled out of the second Test against India through injury, with his Somerset team-mate Shoaib Bashir now nearer an international debut as a result. Left-arm spinner Leach, 32, played a limited role in England's stunning 28-run win in the series opener, where Ben Stokes's men overcame a first-innings deficit of 190 runs, following a problem with his left knee. "He's ruled out of the second Test. Unfortunately the knock he took resulted in a haematoma," Ben Stokes told British media.
