The Indian Premier League franchises turned him down but Team India`s Test specialist Hanuma Vihari is all set to prepare for the upcoming six-Test season in the United Kingdom by competing for English county side Warwickshire. The right-handed middle-order batsman has left for UK and will be a part of the Birmingham based county side for at least three games this season.
"Yes, Vihari will be playing in the English county side for Warwickshire this season. He would play a few games. He is already in England now," a senior BCCI official confirmed the development to PTI on Tuesday. The Warwickshire county`s official page hasn`t made the announcement yet but as per BCCI officials, the modalities are being worked out.
