The lanky Ishant, who bagged the man-of-the-series in India's 2-0 Test series win over Australia missed the first two games against England with an ankle injury. An MRI scan on his ankle revealed that it was just a minor sprain and it was suggested that he take a little rest. If Ishant returns to action in Kanpur, either Munaf Patel or R P Singh will make way.
England will play seven One-dayers and two Tests during their tour of India.
