SA ODIs: Senior seamer Deepak Chahar, who was injured during a training session prior to the first SA ODIs in Lucknow, is likely to miss the final two matches, which is a setback for the Indian ODI side. Chahar didn’t play for the Indian team in the first game, which Shikhar Dhawan’s team lost by nine runs despite the visitors amassing 250 runs in just 40 overs.
“Although Deepak has a twisted ankle, it is not a catastrophic injury. However, it could be wise to take a few days off “On the condition of anonymity, a source with knowledge of the selection process told PTI.
“Deepak is on the standby list for the T20 World Cup, thus the decision to risk him will be made by the team management. In any event, it would be a priority if there was a need there.” Currently, Mohammed Shami is Jasprit Bumrah’s replacement in the T20 World Cup squad. Shami is gradually becoming a match-fit and is anticipated to go for Australia within the next three to four days.
“Mohammed Shami, if healthy, was always going to be the first replacement because he represents the highest level of quality the Indian squad can muster. He’ll start around the middle of next week “Added the source.
