India wicketkeeper-batsman Wriddhiman Saha reached Kolkata on Monday night after recovering from Covid-19 and is now fit and available for selection to the India squad. The 36-year-old will be joining the Indian team in quarantine in Mumbai on May 24.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Saha, who has played 38 Tests and effected 103 dismissals, had been picked in the India squad for the tour of England subject to fitness after he tested positive for Covid-19 during the postponed Indian Premier League (IPL) this month.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
"He is keeping fine. He returned home to Kolkata (from Delhi) on Monday night. He will be joining the team on May 24,<\/strong>" a source in the know of things told IANS.<\/p>\r\n\r\n Saha, who is a reserve wicketkeeper with the Indian team behind Rishabh Pant, was part of the SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) team in Delhi when he got infected with Covid-19. While the remaining members of the team dispersed, he had to stay back in New Delhi to serve quarantine.<\/p>\r\n\r\n The Indian team leaves for England on June 2 from Mumbai in a charter flight. India play the World Test Championship final against New Zealand from June 18 and then play five Test matches against England in August-September.
