It was the second ball of the first innings in the field, so that whole game I was playing with this knee problem.<br \/>&#8220;I obviously knocked it a few times throughout that game and it has just created a long period of recovery. I need to get the operation done and then hopefully I can get back to playing cricket.&#8221;<br \/>England&#8217;s next Test series is not scheduled until the home summer, where they will host the West Indies in July, shortly after the Twenty20 World Cup. Meanwhile, Somerset, Leach&#8217;s county team, is set to kick off their new season in April.<br \/>&#8220;I&#8217;d love to have a run of playing cricket and getting into a bit of a rhythm again and hopefully that can happen again once I&#8217;ve got this sorted,&#8221; Leach added.<br \/>In Leach&#8217;s absence, Shoaib Bashir has stepped up for the tourists in the first innings of the fourth Test with figures of 4-84 so far as he ripped through the top order to restrict India to 219-7, trailing England by 134 runs.<br \/><span class=\"strong em \">(With inputs from
