England batsman Dawid Malan has been added to the red-ball squad for the third Test against India at Headingley. He last featured in a Test match back in 2018 against India at Edgbaston.

Malan had dropped Indian captain Virat Kohli multiple times in the match at slip cordon. Kohli had scored 149 from 225 balls which was his first Test hundred on English soil.

Kohli was dropped twice, once on 21 and again on 51. "Yeah, I can't forget that, actually. I don't think I can forget dropping Virat 2-3 times and him getting 150 (149). So that wasn't my best memory of Test cricket, I can imagine," Malan said to the media during an interaction.

"That just shows you, that is Test cricket. It is amazing that just before your time ends, things just go wrong. You stop scoring runs, you drop catches, everything just falls apart. Yeah, not the best memory," he added.

Malan opened up on his fielding position after dropping Kohli in slips. He hasn't been in the slip cordon again and the 33-year-old also talked about the problem of adjusting to a specialist fielding position in Test cricket after being made to field all over the ground.

"Haven't been in slips much since then and that is the toughest thing when you field at different positions in county cricket and then come into Test cricket and (are) slotted into a position that you don't do very often," he said further.

"That is no excuse though when you work your socks off to play for England and you get all the opportunities to do that. Hopefully, if I get there, then I will catch a few of those."
