Virat had earlier missed the England Test series amid rumours of the cricketer and his wife expecting their second child. However, his friend and former RCB teammate AB de Villiers revealed that the couple are indeed expecting a baby but later retracted to the announcement.

Ahead of the 1st Test in Hyderabad, Virat had announced that he won't be playing the Test series. "The BCCI respects his decision and the Board and team management has extended its support to the star batter and is confident in the abilities of the remaining squad members to step up and deliver commendable performances in the Test series," the BCCI announced in a statement.
