India vs Sri Lanka: Mayank Agarwal replaces injured Ruturaj Gaikwad

Opening batter Ruturaj Gaikwad has been dominated out of the continued T20I sequence towards Sri Lanka. He had complained of ache in his proper wrist joint forward of the primary T20I in Lucknow on Thursday and was once tested through the BCCI Clinical Group.

An MRI scan was once later performed adopted through a expert session. Ruturaj will now head to the Nationwide Cricket Academy in Bengaluru for additional control of his harm.

The All-India Senior Variety Committee has added Mayank Agarwal to India’s squad for the rest two T20Is.

Mayank has joined the staff in Dharamsala. The Karnataka batter, who is ready to steer Punjab Kings within the IPL is but to make his T20I debut for India.

If it wasn’t for Ruturaj Gaekwad’s wrist harm, he can have opened with Kishan and Rohit would have dropped himself down the order like he did towards the West Indies.

Previous, speedy bowler Deepak Chahar and middle-order batter Suryakumar Yadav were dominated out from the T20I sequence towards Sri Lanka. Deepak sustained a proper quadriceps harm all through bowling, whilst Suryakumar suffered a hairline fracture all through a fielding try within the 3rd and ultimate T20I towards the West Indies in Kolkata.

India’s T20 squad for 2d and third T20Is: Rohit Sharma (Captain), Shreyas Iyer, Sanju Samson, Ishan Kishan (wicket-keeper), Venkatesh Iyer, Deepak Hooda, Ravindra Jadeja, Yuzvendra Chahal, Ravi Bishnoi, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohd. Siraj, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Harshal Patel, Jasprit Bumrah (vice-captain), Avesh Khan, Mayank Agarwal
