Veteran Indian all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja and young left-arm pacer Yash Dayal have been ruled out of the white-ball series against Bangladesh. On Wednesday, the All-India Senior Selection Committee decided to name fast bowler Kuldeep Sen and all-rounder Shahbaz Ahmed as the replacements for Dayal and Jadeja for the upcoming 3-match One Day International (ODI) series against Bangladesh in December.
As per the recent developments, Dayal has a lower back issue and he is ruled out of the series. Star all-rounder Jadeja, who is yet to recover from his knee injury, will remain under the supervision of the BCCI Medical Team. Veteran all-rounder Jadeja had earlier sustained a knee injury which also kept him out of the T20 World Cup 2022 in Australia. India also missed the services of pace ace Jasprit Bumrah at the T20 World Cup.
