The wrist-spinner on Monday shared a picture on the Koo app as he began rehabilitation at NCA. "Back at NCA. Rehab time," Kuldeep captioned the post on the Koo app.

Meanwhile, KL Rahul was further ruled out of the rescheduled fifth Test which India is slated to play against England at Old Trafford starting on July 1.

KL Rahul had also reported to NCA last week where the medical team assessed the batter would not play the rescheduled fifth Test against England.

Moreover, the All-India Senior Selection Committee has added Mayank Agarwal to India's Test squad for the rescheduled fifth Test as cover for captain Rohit Sharma, who tested positive for COVID-19.
