On the eve of India’s third Test match against England in the current five-match series, India seamer Deepak Chahar was observed during their workout. The cricketer from Rajasthan happened to be in London when the Indian team arrived.
The pacer appeared to have reconnected with the team for a few sessions, while Deepak Chahar and his spouse, Jaya Bharadwaj, had attended the Wimbledon competition at the Centre Court. Additionally, the Indian team is scheduled to begin their third Test match in London (Lord’s). The inclusion of the bowler for the Mumbai Indians in the team has not yet been officially announced.
Prior to the tour, Deepak Chahar had not been included in the original 18-man team.

Workload management has been the subject of much recent discussion in the Indian camp. Jasprit Bumrah will only participate in three Test matches in the series, including the first match at Headingley, as has previously been agreed. Harshit Rana was also selected in India’s squad for the opening game of the series as a precaution, but fortunately, no injuries occurred. The Lord’s Test is anticipated to be played by Bumrah.
Speaking of the series’ development thus far, the visiting team levelled the series after losing by five wickets on the final day of the Headingley match by winning by 336 runs in the second match. By winning at the Home of Cricket, they would hope to build on their momentum and maybe take a 2-1 series lead.
Shubman Gill, the captain, has been the most impressive batsman. He has so far amassed 585 runs in four innings and has appeared to be in excellent form when batting in the middle. Akash Deep, who replaced Bumrah in the second game, was a blessing in disguise for his team as he took a spectacular 10-wicket haul in Birmingham.
