<p>Ravindra Jadeja was allowed to train at the Ageas Bowl in the Southampton on Sunday, he updated his fans through social media.</p>
<p>Team India reached England on Thursday and headed into a three day quarantine in Southampton.</p>
<p>Ravindra Jadeja had  his first outdoor training session at Ageas Bowl while his teammates continue to isolate in their hotel rooms.</p>
<p>The Ageas Bowl will be hosting the WTC final between New Zealand and India. Both the teams will challenge each other  in the WTC, beginning June 18, in Southampton, while the women&#8217;s cricket team will begin the England tour with a one-off Test from June 16.</p>

<p>Prior to departing for England, Ravi Shashtri had said that going ahead , ICC should look to make the final of the WTC a best-of-three contest and it could be played like a three- match series. Meanwhile New Zealand team is already in the UK and have begun their test series against England.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Australia has suffered a major setback before the fourth Test.  The team&#8217;s star player Will Pukowski is injured.  After this, his playing in the fourth Test against India starting on 15 January is considered to be doubtful.  In fact, he suffered an injury to his right shoulder during the Sydney Test when he tried to stop the ball from falling in the 86th over of the Indian innings.<br>    He was hurt that he sat for a while holding his shoulder.  Eventually he left the field.  He is then taken to the hospital for a scan.  According to Australian media, &#8220;There is no official update yet about Pukowski&#8217;s fitness&#8221;.<br>     Pukowski, who made his Test debut against India, scored 62 runs in the first innings but was dismissed for just ten runs in the second innings.  Last month too, he succumbed to concussion (head injury) during a practice match.  Let us know that the last Test of the Border-Gavaskar Test Series between India and Australia is to be played at BABBEN&#8217;s Gaba from 15 January.  The four-match series is currently 1–1.</p>
