The Indian cricket team is aiming for a complete victory in the Test series against Sri Lanka. India, who had earlier won the first Test by an innings and 222 runs, need to win the Day Night Test in Bangalore. Rohit Sharma and his team can expect nothing less than victory in every remaining match to reach the top two in the World Test-World Cup points table. At the same time, the question is how the Indian playing XI will fare for the second Test. When star spin bowler Akshar Patel joins the team, it is very important that no one goes out of the playing XI. India: Sri Lanka Day Night Test starts tomorrow.
However, when all-rounder Akshar Patel was added to the Indian squad for the second Test, Chinaman spinner Kuldeep Yadav missed the opportunity. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has decided to release Kuldeep Yadav from the squad. Meanwhile, Indian fast bowler Jaspreet Bumra has denied all reports that Kuldeep Yadav has been left out of the Test squad.
“Akshar Patel is a player who has served the Indian team in every sense. But we have not excluded anyone from the Indian squad. Kuldeep Yadav has been with the Indian team for a long time in Bio Bubble. Life in this bio-bubble is never comfortable. ” Bumra spoke openly at the press meet.
