Dhaka: Umran Malik has been included in the Indian squad for the ODI series against Bangladesh. Umran was called into the team after Mohammad Shami was injured. Shami was humbled by a shoulder injury. The player is currently undergoing treatment at the National Cricket Academy. India will play three ODIs against Bangladesh. The first match is tomorrow. Shami may return in the Test series after that. Umran was with the team for the recent tour of New Zealand.
Indian team: Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, Shikhar Dhawan, Virat Kohli, Rajat Padidhar, Shreyas Iyer, Rahul Tripadi, Rishabh Pant, Ishan Kishan, Shahbaz Ahmed, Axar Patel, Washington Sundar, Shardul Thakur, Mohammad Siraj, Deepak Chahar, Kuldeep Sen, Umran Malik.
At the same time, Bangladesh also suffered a heavy blow. Captain Tamim Iqbal will not play in the series. Ahead of the ODI series, Tamim suffered a thigh injury while playing in the warm-up match yesterday and will miss the one-day series completely. Doctors have advised Tamim to rest for two weeks due to his thigh injury. With this, Tamim’s playing in the first match of the two-match Test series after the ODI series is also in doubt.
The first test will start on 14th of this month. Apart from Tamim, the in-form pace bowler Taskin Ahmed is also missing for the first match of the ODI series. It is suggested that Tuskin, who is resting due to injury, will play in the second and third ODIs.
Meanwhile, the Indian team reached Dhaka. Captain Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and KL Rahul are all back in the team. Malayali player Sanju Samson, who played in the series against New Zealand, has not been given a place in the team.
