Bresnan called up to England Test squad after Shahzad ruled out


 
Bresnan called up to England Test squad after Shahzad ruled out Tim Bresnan has been called up to the England squad after Ajmal Shahzad was ruled out of the first Test against Pakistan this week due to an ankle injury.

ECB chief medical officer, Nick Peirce, said: "After twisting his left ankle with Yorkshire over a week ago Ajmal went on to successfully play in a Clydesdale Bank 40 match for his county last Monday.

"Unfortunately Ajmal felt some discomfort following England practice at the National Cricket Performance Centre on Tuesday and as a precautionary measure it is felt he is best to undergo rehabilitation on the ankle for the remainder of this week.

"We expect Ajmal to make a full recovery, he hasn't been ruled unavailable for the 2nd npower Test starting next week. He will continue to be assessed this week before a decision on his fitness is made."

As a result Bresnan was called up to the squad and will practice with the team at Trent Bridge today.

England take on Pakistan in the first of a four-Test series tomorrow.ADNFCR-8000010-ID-19911083-ADNFCR
