India’s star fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah returns to the T20I squad, strengthening the pace attack ahead of the Afghanistan series.
Bumrah’s selection is currently subject to fitness clearance, making his final availability an important talking point.
With Bumrah, Arshdeep Singh and Harshit Rana in the squad, India’s bowling unit gets a major boost.
India will face Afghanistan in a three-match T20I series from September 13 to 17 at Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium.
If cleared to play, Bumrah’s return will add experience, accuracy and death-over firepower to India’s T20I campaign.
