BCCI Selection Committee Meeting – Is Bumrah fit? InsideSport has learnt that both Bumrah and Harshal have regained their full fitness. They both gave a fitness test at the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru on Saturday. The Medical staff of BCCI was satisfied with their progress.
They will now be available for the selection for T20 World Cup Squad as well as series against Australia.
The selectors, however, will see the progress of Bumrah and Harshal in the upcoming home T20I series against Australia and South Africa. Both will be made to play the matches against the visiting sides.
Who makes way for Bumrah & Harshal? The Asia Cup squad had four pacers – Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Arshdeep Singh, Avesh Khan and all-rounder Hardik Pandya. Selectors are likely to include both Bumrah and Harshal in India squad for T20 World Cup.
This means Avesh Khan is certain to lose his place. Selectors are also thinking to recall Mohammed Shami in Indian squad which will mean one of the other pacer from the ASIA CUP line-up will make way for him.
The selection committee meeting is likely to take place either on September 15 or on September 16th.
Jadeja ‘NOT AVAILABLE’: Jadeja has had a surgery on his right knee and is completely ruled out of the T20 World Cup.
For Harshal though, things are looking good. He is close to recovery and could make a comeback for the Australia and South Africa series at home.
