Ahead of the fifth and final Test of the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy 2025, Tamil Nadu wicketkeeper-batter Narayan Jagadeesan is all set to be added to India’s squad as a replacement for the injured Rishabh Pant. With Ishan Kishan also ruled out due to an unfortunate accident, Jagadeesan is reportedly the frontrunner to don the gloves at The Oval.
Pant, India’s vice-captain and primary wicketkeeper, suffered a fractured toe on his right foot while attempting a reverse sweep against Chris Woakes on Day 1 of the fourth Test at Old Trafford. The blow was serious enough to force him off the field on a buggy, and later scans revealed a metatarsal fracture. Despite being advised a six-to-eight week rest period, Pant bravely returned to bat on Day 2, receiving applause.
