Akash Deep is uncertain for the fourth Test against England after struggling to complete his spells in the second innings at Lord’s. The right-arm pacer also skipped bowling in a recent net session before India's departure to Manchester.
Akash Deep is reportedly struggling with a recurring back issue. According to a report by TimesofIndia.com, Akash is unlikely to feature alongside Jasprit Bumrah in the remaining two Tests.
"Jasprit Bumrah and Akash Deep won't be playing together in the remaining two Tests," a source tracking the development told TimesofIndia.com.
"If Bumrah plays in Manchester, then Akash will sit out. At The Oval, Akash will replace Bumrah," said the source.

"Arsh going away there after he cut his hand and Akash not bowling today. Sometimes we run a bit thin, and if we think the practice is good, someone bowling 20 yards and a bit taller and shaking a new ball, it is good practice for the batters," said the coach.
