KL Rahul has fully recovered from a forearm injury, and is available for the 4th Test against England. It is a huge boost for the Indian team, which played without a regular opener in the last game in Mohali.
The Indian team opted to open with Parthiv Patel, alongside Murali Vijay, in Mohali. Rahul sustained the injury during the 2nd Test itself, but suffered another blow on the eve of the Mohali Test.

He subsequently was ruled out of the game, which forced the Indian team management to open with Parthiv. The opener, however, has recovered from the injury, and all set to partner Vijay at the Wankhede Stadium.
The Indian Cricket Team is already troubled by a number of injuries. Wriddhiman Saha, Hardik Pandya and Shikhar Dhawan are nursing their respective injuries. Ishant Sharma, meanwhile, is unavailable because of his marriage.
India are currently leading the five-match Test 2-0, after registering back-to-back wins in Vizag and Mohali.
