India were 2-1 up in the series heading into the final test but the match was thrown into doubt on Thursday after their physiotherapist Yogesh Parmar tested positive for the novel coronavirus. The ECB initially said in the statement that India had forfeited the match but later retracted that. "Both the Boards will work towards finding a window to reschedule this test match," the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) said in a statement. India will return to England in July to play three Twenty20 matches and an equal number of one-day internationals. England's tour of South Africa was abandoned in December after a number of positive coronavirus results were reported.
