India vs England: Injury concerns for hosts as Stuart Broad tweaks his right calf, says report

London: England suffered an injury scare ahead of the second Test against India with key pacer Stuart Broad tweaking his right calf during a warm-up at the Lord’s here on Tuesday. “Stuart Broad tweaked his right calf during England’s warm-up at Lord’s and was unable to train with the rest of the squad,” according to ESPNcricinfo. “He will have a scan on Wednesday to determine the extent of his injury.” [caption id=“attachment_9710561” align=“alignnone” width=“640”]File image of Stuart Broad.

The second Test begins at Lord’s on Thursday. The opening Test ended in a draw after rain washed out the final day.
