T20 World Cup 2024: No Hardik, Pant or Samson in Ambati Rayudu's India Squad for World Cup
Mumbai, October 14: The All-India Senior Selection Committee on Friday (October 14) has named Mohammed Shami as Jasprit Bumrah's replacement in India squad for the ICC T20 World Cup 2022.
Shami has reached Australia and will link up with the squad in Brisbane ahead of the warm-up matches.
Shami has not played T20I cricket since last year's edition of the ICC T20 World Cup in November 2021.
After recovering from COVID-19, he has been training at the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru.
This bout of the virus had kept him out of white-ball series against Australia and South Africa at home. He last featured in a competitive cricket match during India's tour of England back in July.
Jasprit Bumrah suffering a stress reaction during the T20I leg of the series against South Africa was a massive blow to Team India ahead of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2022.
Mohammed Siraj and Shardul Thakur have been named backups and will travel to Australia shortly
At the World Cup, India is in Group 2 with Pakistan, Bangladesh, South Africa and two qualifiers.
Following their October 23 encounter against Pakistan at the MCG, they will play on October 27, against a qualifier in Sydney, on October 30, against South Africa in Perth, on November 2, against Bangladesh in Adelaide, and on November 6. (vs qualifier in Melbourne).
India will also miss the services of Ravindra Jadeja who was ruled out of the World Cup with a knee injury during the Asia Cup. Deepak Hooda had also suffered a niggle but the all-rounder has since recovered and travelled with India squad to Australia.
Deepak Chahar, who was originally in the standby players list, too was ruled out of the big event with an injury that he suffered during the home series against South Africa.
India squad for ICC T20 World Cup 2022 (Updated): Rohit Sharma (Captain), KL Rahul (vice-captain), Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Deepak Hooda, Rishabh Pant (wicket-keeper), Dinesh Karthik (wicket-keeper), Hardik Pandya, R. Ashwin, Yuzvendra Chahal, Axar Patel, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Harshal Patel, Arshdeep Singh and Mohammed Shami.
