England fast bowler Steven Finn (in pic) has replaced injured Liam Plunkett for the fourth Test against India at Old Trafford starting Thursday. Plunkett, who picked 3 wickets in the first drawn Test and scalped 4 during England's loss at Lord's apart from a half-century, opted out of the third Test as well due to an injured ankle. ‘Liam Plunkett experienced some left ankle discomfort at the end of the second Investec Test and will miss the fourth Test as this continues to settle,’ ECB said in a short statement on their website. Finn's comeback after a disastrous Ashes tour can be traced to his good form for Middlesex this season – he has taken 44 wickets so far in the county championship this summer at an average of 29.72.
