Prasidh Krishna has been added to India's squad ahead of their fourth Test against England at The Oval. The right-arm quick, who was on the stand-by list and has been training with the team from the start of the tour, was roped in after a request from the team management to the selection committee.

As per a BCCI release, Prasidh Krishna has been included in India's Test squad ahead of the fourth Test, as an additional fast-bowling option.

"The All-India Senior Selection Committee - based on the request of the team management - has added fast bowler Prasidh Krishna to India’s squad for the fourth Test," BCCI said in a release.

The five-match series is currently leveled at 1-1, with the fourth Test to be played at The Oval, beginning Thursday, September 2.

India’s squad for the fourth Test: Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, Mayank Agarwal, Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli (Captain), Ajinkya Rahane (vice-captain), Hanuma Vihari, Rishabh Pant (wicket-keeper), R. Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Jasprit Bumrah, Ishant Sharma, Mohd. Shami, Md.
