The Indian contingent on Monday were off to London for the second Test against England at Lord’s though replacement players, Suryakumar Yadav and Prithvi Shaw, remained in Nottingham to complete their quarantine.


It is learnt that the entire Indian contingent left for London at around 11 am local time after every member tested negative for RT-PCR. Shaw and Suryakumar, who linked up with the squad in Nottingham on August 3, will only complete their 10-day quarantine on August 13, which means that they can only train from August 14 and will be available for selection from the third Test, starting August 25 at Leeds. 


The nine-day gap between second and third Test will give the duo ample chance to train and get match ready in case the team management feels the necessity of playing either of the two.


With UK moving Indian travellers from red to amber list from August 8, BCCI president Sourav Ganguly is set to leave for London on Tuesday to watch the second Test at Lord’s starting August 12. It is also expected that secretary Jay Shah, vice-president Rajiv Shukla, treasurer Arun Dhumal might be in the UK to watch the Indian team play at some point during the series.
