Visakhapatnam: England announced Thursday that spinner Shoaib Bashir would make his Test debut in the second match of their India tour, after an injury to Jack Leach. The tourists lead the five-match series 1-0 ahead of the Test starting Friday in Visakhapatnam and have made two changes with James Anderson coming in as the lone quick. Bashir made a late entry into India after a visa delay — the latest cricketer of Pakistani descent to have such troubles in India — and missed the opener that England won by 28 runs. The 20-year-old off-spinner had to fly back to London from Abu Dhabi to finish the required paperwork for his entry to India. “He was just taking it all in, to be honest, landing that early then coming in and seeing what had gone on,” Stokes said on Bashir joining the team on Sunday. “I think he enjoyed being in that dressing room. There are no worries and no issues for me that he’s been away from the group for some time, then coming back in to make his debut,” he added. “It’s not like he’s forgotten how to bowl”. Bashir will join fellow spinners Rehan Ahmed, Joe Root, and Tom Hartley, the latter starring in the opening win with figures of 7-62 in his Test debut.Leach, a left-arm spinner, injured his knee while fielding in the first Test and played a limited role before being forced out of the second with a hematoma. Anderson returns to the team to replace Mark Wood, who bowled 25 overs without a wicket in Hyderabad. The 41-year-old is 10 shy of 700 Test wickets and Stokes hailed his old warhorse. “Bringing Jimmy’s experience, the class that he has, is great and I think it also goes under the radar how good his record in India is,” said Stokes. “He has different skill sets that I will be able to exploit in Indian conditions.”Stokes also defended Wood for going wicketless in the first Test.
