Deepak Chahar and Krunal Pandya received their maiden call-ups for the three-match T20I series against England. The announcement was released by BCCI after Bumrah and Washington Sundar were ruled out of the series due to injuries.
Here Is The Journey Of Krunal Pandya
Both the players are currently involved in the triseries against Windies and England A squads. Deepak Chahar has been bowling consistently in the series and these performances made sure to grab him a spot in the T20I squad.
Chahar and Krunal exhibited their class in the IPL season earlier this year. While Chahar bowled thrifty overs in the power plays, Krunal made an impact as an all-rounder yet again. It will be really interesting if they can make it to the playing XI led by Virat Kohli.
The final of the triseries will be played between India A and the England Lions tomorrow. Youngsters Prithvi Shaw and Mayank Agarwal played a vital role in the journey of the squad and the team will definitely hope to finish the tournament on a high.
Axar Patel has been named as Sundar”s replacement for the ODI series. However, BCCI hasn”t named any cover for Bumrah as he is expected to be fit after the T20I”s. India will begin their campaign on July 3rd at Old Trafford, Manchester.
