England could select as many as three left-arm spinners for their five-Test tour of India in the new year, with the uncapped Callum Parkinson and Tom Hartley being considered for call-ups alongside the returning Jack Leach.
Leach missed the Ashes summer after the detection of a lower back stress fracture but, having proved his fitness during a recent England training camp in the United Arab Emirates, the 32-year-old is expected to be named this week in the squad to take on India.
