IND vs AUS: India Squad Announced for Australia T20Is

Team India have named an 18-member squad for the upcoming three T20I matches at home against Australia who are also the defending T20 World Cup champions. Both Jasprit Bumrah and Harshal Patel have been included in the Indian side after the pace bowling duo have recovered from their respective injury issues. Incidentally, senior speedster Mohammed Shami makes his long-awaited return into the shortest format of the game after having played his last T20I match during last year’s ICC T20 World Cup. Shami is also one of the four stand-by players named in India’s squad for the ICC T20 World Cup 2022 scheduled to be held later this year.

In order to manage his workload ahead of the all-important T20 World Cup, left-arm pacer Arshdeep Singh has not been included in the Indian side for the three T20Is against Australia and instead he will be reporting at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru.
