The 37-year-old seamer is struggling to find his World T20 form for India national cricket team since returning from a knee surgery in May last. Ashish Nehra resurrected his career with a fine performance at the World T20 in March-April, and carried the form into the IPL for Sunrisers Hyderabad. In the warm-up match against England at the Brabourne Stadium, his first competitive game after the lay-off, Nehra looked rusty. The selectors put faith in Nehra after he spearheaded the pace attack in the World T20, where India reached the semifinal. On the eve of the second T20I at the VCA Stadium, Nehra bowled a bit, but concentrated more on fitness and fielding drills.
