Mayank Yadav gets maiden call-up as Gill, Pant miss out in India’s T20I Squad for Bangladesh
The Board of Control for Cricket in India has announced a 15-member squad for the upcoming T20I series against Bangladesh. A notable inclusion for the Men in Blue is Mayank Yadav, whose fiery pace in this year’s IPL has drawn significant attention and has now got his maiden call-up.
Mayank Yadav has received his inaugural call-up to the national squad. Hailing from Delhi, he has been in the headlines after surpassing the 150 km/h mark during IPL 2024 while playing for the Lucknow Super Giants. Unfortunately, his tournament came to an early end due to injury. Since then, he has been rehabilitating at the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru.
The squad sees the return of Varun Chakaravarthy, who has excelled in recent IPL seasons and is being recalled for the first time since the T20 World Cup 2021. There are several alterations to India’s T20 lineup from their last appearance in the format against Sri Lanka in July.
Sunrisers Hyderabad players Abhishek Sharma and Nitish Kumar Reddy also make their return after missing the T20I series against Sri Lanka. Abhishek, who scored a century in his debut match in Zimbabwe, was not selected for the three T20Is in Sri Lanka.
India’s squad for T20Is against Bangladesh: Suryakumar Yadav (C), Abhishek Sharma, Sanju Samson (wk), Rinku Singh, Hardik Pandya, Riyan Parag, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Shivam Dube, Washington Sundar, Ravi Bishnoi, Varun Chakaravarthy, Jitesh Sharma (wk), Arshdeep Singh, Harshit Rana, Mayank Yadav
