Indian bowler Zaheer Khan has been ruled out of the second Test against England at Trent Bridge.
Khan's absence tomorrow will be viewed as a boost for England, who lead the four-match series 1-0 after a 196-run advantage in last week's first Test.
Despite only bowling 13.3 overs in the first innings at Lord's, 32-year-old Khan took the wickets of both England openers and bowled eight maidens before pulling up with a hamstring injury.
India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni confirmed Khan would not be risked and is likely to be replaced by either Sreesanth or Munaf Patel for Friday's Test.
