India’s talismanic all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja has made a return to India’s Test and ODI squad for the tour of Bangladesh. Jadeja was ruled out after he suffered a knee injury in the Asia Cup and could not play in the T20 World Cup.
Jasprit Bumrah will continue to recover from his back injury and he has not been named in any squads. On the other hand, Uttar Pradesh’s fast bowler Yash Dayal, who impressed one and all while playing for Gujarat Giants in IPL 2022, has received a maiden call-up in the ODI squad.
Dayal had scalped 11 wickets in nine matches and had played a key role in the success of the Hardik Pandya-led team.
Meanwhile, Hanuma Vihari has not been included in the Test squad. Chief selector Chetan Sharma revealed that Vihari could not get a place in the squad as the middle order is packed.
“There were a lot of discussions about Hanuma. Our middle order at this time is packed if you talk about the eleven with Shreyas Iyer and Virat Kohli (in the middle order), and Shubman Gill obviously is in the scheme of things. Hanuma is also in the scheme of things but sometimes you miss out.
“It’s not like there’s something wrong with this player but according to the combination, conditions, and wickets in Bangladesh…the selectors spoke about it, this is your formation and you have to see who are the players who feature in the eleven. So that is the reason Hanuma missed out. He was there in the side and he’ll definitely come back very soon.”
