As per reports, Shardul Thakur has replaced Chahar and will be taking the flight to Australia alongside Mohammad Shami and Mohammed Siraj on Thursday. It is a dream come true for Shardul, who had recently expressed his disappointment of missing the World Cup.
With Shami, Siraj and Shardul heading to Australia together, one of them will grab the replacement spot. It us just a matter of formality with Shami set to be named as Bumrah’s replacement. With the kind of experience Shami brings to the table, he is the best candidate.
