The Indian team suffered a major setback during the fifth and final match of the ongoing Border Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 against Australia in Sydney. Jasprit Bumrah, who was playing the role of captain in the match, was seen leaving the field with the medical team in the middle of the match, due to which Virat Kohli had to take over the responsibility of the captain.
Therefore, now Jasprit Bumrah’s fitness has increased the problems of Team India. In such a situation, let us know who can replace him if he is not able to be a part of the Champions Trophy 2025.
Jasprit Bumrah ruled out of Champions Trophy 2025
Bad news has come out for Team India in the fifth match of the Border Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 being played in Sydney. After the lunch break on the second day, acting captain and star fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah got injured, due to which he had to leave the field.
Then he was seen going for a scan with the medical team. In his absence, the responsibility of captaincy fell on the shoulders of Virat Kohli. Since then, fans have been waiting for his health update. But if Jasprit Bumrah’s injury becomes more serious then he may have to be out of the Champions Trophy 2025.
This player may get a chance
If Jasprit Bumrah is unable to be a part of the Champions Trophy 2025, then young fast bowler Arshdeep Singh can be included in Team India in his place. The 25-year-old young fast bowler made his ODI debut in the year 2022. Playing eight matches of this format, he has taken 12 wickets. During this, his economy rate has been 5.05. Arshdeep Singh’s performance in limited-overs cricket has been excellent. He has also made a place in the hearts of the audience with his charismatic bowling.
Had a great performance in T20 World Cup 2024
Arshdeep Singh’s performance was excellent in the ICC T20 World Cup played in June 2024. He gave India many important successes by wreaking havoc on the opposition team. His performance in the final match was also impressive. In such a situation, it is expected that if Jasprit Bumrah is not available for the Champions Trophy 2025, then the Indian selectors can turn to Arshdeep Singh.
India’s probable team for Champions Trophy 2025
Yashasvi Jaiswal, Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant, Sanju Samson, Axar Patel, Hardik Pandya, Kuldeep Yadav, Arshdeep Singh, Mohammed Shami, Ravindra Jadeja, Mohammed Siraj.
Backups: Nitish Kumar Reddy, Prasidh Krishna, Dhruv Jurel
