India name Prince Yadav and Ravi Bishnoi as injury replacements
India named Prince Yadav and Ravi Bishnoi as injury replacements for Harshit Rana and Varun Chakaravarthy.
India's injury crisis deepens. Prince Yadav replaces Harshit Rana in the ODI squad while Ravi Bishnoi comes in for Varun Chakaravarthy in the T20I setup — both fast-tracked after hamstring injuries sidelined the originals during the England T20 series.
Yadav, a domestic fast bowler, and Bishnoi, an experienced leg-spinner, will join the squad for the ODI series against England and the subsequent T20I leg against Zimbabwe. The BCCI selection panel confirmed the changes on Friday, with no other alterations to the white-ball groups.
