According to media reports, Rituraj Gaikwad will not be able to play even in the first few matches of the India-England Test series.

Ahead of the Afghanistan series, India's list of injured players continues to grow. Apart from Rituraj Gaikwad, veterans like Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya will not be able to play in this T20 series.
