Umran Malik to replace Mohd. Shami for Bangladesh ODIs

What a year it has been for Umran Malik. After impressing everyone with his pace in the IPL, the speedster produced excellent performances in the recently concluded New Zealand series.

And now, the young pacer from Kashmir has been included in the limited-overs series against Bangladesh. The fast bowler replaces Mohammad Shami, who sustained a shoulder injury during a training session.


Umran Malik lived up to the expectations in the ODI series against New Zealand. He troubled the New Zealand batters with his raw pace. Umran will join the likes of Chahar, Shardul, Mohammed Siraj and Kuldeep Sen in India’s pace attack for the ODI series against Bangladesh.

Meanwhile, Shami is currently under the supervision of the BCCI Medical Team at the NCA, Bengaluru and will not be able to participate in the three-match series.

Revised India’s squad for Bangladesh ODIs: Rohit Sharma (C), KL Rahul (VC), Shikhar Dhawan, Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar, Shreyas Iyer, Rahul Tripathi, Rishabh Pant (WK), Ishan Kishan (WK), Shahbaz Ahmed, Axar Patel, Washington Sundar, Shardul Thakur, Mohd. Siraj, Deepak Chahar, Kuldeep Sen, Umran Malik
