Explosive opening batsman Virender Sehwag is out of the first two test matches out of the series of 4 test matches against England, starting from 21th July, 2011. But he will be available in the last two matches. The first two matches will be played in Lords and Trent Bridge respectively. On the eve before the starting day of the 3 days practice match against Somerset, India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni told to media that they will regret Sehwag's absense in the first two matches because he is one of those players who has a great impact on the result of the match.
Sehwag was given a spot in the team declared on 2nd July for India's tour of England inspite of the fact that he has not yet recovered completely from his shoulder injury. He has to join with the team after a fortnight. Though Sehwag recently said that he will get fit 100% within 1 week but it seems like after the surgery of his shoulder he is not completely fit. Due to this injury only, Sehwag was out of the entire Caribbean tour. Abhinav Mukund whose performance was good in the West Indies is in the team and he will start the innings with Gautam Gambhir in the first two tests.
