India's squads For Aus &SA T20 series. - Page 3

Hyderabad: Team Indiaall set play T20 cricket in Hyderabad almost after 4 years.

The last they played T20 match was with West Indies on December 6, 2019 where India defeated them by 6 wickets on a high score match.

KL Rahul's 62 and Virat Kohli's 94 lead India chase down a mammoth score of 206 in 20 overs. This time India will be facing Australia at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in their 3rd and last T20 of the series on September 25th.

Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium at Uppal is the major cricket stadium in the city with a capacity of close to 55,000. It is known for its state-of-the-art facility and has over the years hosted a lot of international games along with matches in the Indian Premier League (IPL).

Ahead of Australia's tour of India, the visitors have suffered a massive setback as three key players have been ruled out of the T20I series in the subcontinent. Fresh after beating New Zealand 3-0 in the ODI series, the reigning T20 champs were scheduled to tour India for a three-match T20I series, but they will be without some key cogs.

Veteran pacer Umesh Yadav has been called up by Team India for the upcoming T20I series against Australia after recovering from a quadriceps injury.

"Umesh was doing his rehab at the NCA after he came back, and it was not a tear, so he has now recovered and is fit to play," a BCCI source told PTI.

Yadav last played for Middlesex at English County where he took 16 wickets in 7 List A games.

Shami will remain in isolation and will be able to rejoin the squad once he tests COVID negative.

Yadav has taken 158 wickets in 52 Tests and 106 scalps from 75 ODIs.

Yadav is likely to replace Mohammed Shami who tested positive for COVID ahead of the clash against the Kangaroos. Shami will remain in isolation and will be able to rejoin the squad once he tests negative.

Ahead of the T20 World Cup starting next month, India is set to play the T20I series against Australia on the 20th, 23rd, and 25th of September and also against South Africa on the 28th of September, 2nd, and 4th of October.

Earlier, Mohammed Shami tested COVID positive and did not reach Mohali for the first T20I vs Australia. His participation in South Africa will also be dependent on his recovery from the infection.

Asked how long he thinks Shami will take to recover, the source seemed hopeful that he would be fit for the next series against South Africa.

"We are expecting Shami to be fit for the next series against South Africa. There are 10 days before that series starts. So we are more than hopeful you can say," he said.

Jasprit Bumrah set to REPLACE Umesh Yadav, will Dinesh Karthik play?

There was some good news for Rohit Sharma's Team India ahead of their second T20I match against Australia in Nagpur on Friday (September 23). After failing to defend 208 runs in the first game in Mohali, the pressure is squarely on the Team India bowlers and fans are wondering when ace pacer Jasprit Bumrah will make a comeback into the side after missing the Asia Cup 2022 due to injury.

Yeah Rohit is waiting for Bumrah with Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham's aarti thaali😆

The fact can't be discounted that India has beaten England, Ireland, West Indies, and now Australia consecutively, but there are few grey areas in the Indian outfit that Rohit Sharma will want to address before they board the flight to Australia.

India had a horror run at the 2021 edition of the T20I World Cup which caused a total overhauling of the team, The men in blue under the leadership of Kohli crashed out of the World Cup in the initial stages.

With a new captain and a new coach in place, India will hope that they can turn around their fortunes. Here are the three things that the Indian team will like to fix before the World Cup starts.

The never-ending chain of injuries:
