Team India’s key fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah will miss the ICC Champions Trophy due to a back injury, and young pacer Harshit Rana will replace him. Spinner Varun Chakaravarthy has been added to the squad in place of Yashasvi Jaiswal. The left-handed opener was part of the previous squad but will now be a backup player, along with Mohammed Siraj and Shivam Dube. These three will stay on standby and only travel to Dubai if needed.
Even though Bumrah’s injury is a setback, the team still has a good mix of experience and young talent, with Rohit Sharma as captain. India will be hoping the new players step up will help the squad to win the Champions Trophy.
