India vs West Indies, 3rd T20I: Kuldeep, Bumrah, Umesh rested; Kaul included
Siddarth Kaul has been included in the Indian squad for the third Test.
India seamer Siddharth Kaul has been roped in by English county side Northamptonshire on a short-term deal that will cover their next three Vitality County Championship fixtures.
The 33-year-old Kaul, represented India in three T20Is and as many ODIs in 2018, including two wicketless appearances against England at Trent Bridge and Lord’s, and most recently was in action for Punjab in the Ranji Trophy, claiming 15 wickets at 31.26 for the season.
Overall, he has taken 286 first-class wickets at 26.44, including 16 five-wicket hauls, and joins Northants as a replacement for the Australian seamer, Chris Tremain, whose four-game spell has come to an end.

“I’m very happy to be here to represent Northamptonshire and very excited to help the team win games and push for promotion. I’m confident that I will bring my positive mindset and experience to help my teammates win in any situation in the match,” Kaul said.
Northants head coach, John Sadler, added: “Sid has a lot of experience with the ball, he’s played a lot of first-class cricket and is keen to make a big impact when he joins the squad. He’s finished his domestic season over in India where he picked up some good form so hopefully he continues that on with us.”
Kaul could feature in Northamptonshire’s next fixture against Gloucestershire, at Wantage Road on May 10.
