India to miss Shardul Thakur at Lord's: Need to think how to pick up 20 wickets, says Virat Kohli

India vs England: Virat Kohli explained the nature of Shardul Thakur's left-hamstring injury and confirmed that the seamer will miss the second Test at Lord's starting Thursday.

Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli on Wednesday confirmed that seamer Shardul Thakur will miss the second Test against England at Lord's with a hamstring injury but "should be okay for the 3rd match". Shardul Thakur played in important part in the drawn first Test where he picked 4 wickets but his absence now might open the door for off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin's selection in the Indian XI at Lord's.
