The Indian cricket squad has received some very excellent news. Jasprit Bumrah, a fast bowler for Team India, has returned. It is also a very good piece of news regarding the upcoming 2023 world cup. Bumrah has been named to the team by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) for the three-match ODI series with SL. Please be informed that the Indian squad will host three T20 and three ODI series against Sri Lanka in the homeland. Opening, a T20 series will begin on Tuesday with the first game (January 3).

A set of three ODIs will be played after that. The dates of the 10, 12, and 15 January for ODIs are selected. Due to a back ailment, Jasprit Bumrah has been absent from the world of cricket since September 2022. He didn’t even participate in the Australia-hosted T20 World Cup. Since then, he has been receiving treatment at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru. However, the NCA has now deemed him suitable. He will now be a part of the Indian ODI team.

The last match Bumrah played was a T20 encounter at Hyderabad on September 25, 2022, against Australia. Bumrah had amassed 50 runs during this game but was unable to grab any wickets. Bumrah was the first player to be eliminated from the Asia Cup owing to a back stress fracture. He was then chosen for the T20 World Cup team. He was left out at the last moment due to a recurrence of his injury. After that, he’s finally back. Now it will be interesting to see how he performs after the recovery.

Indian squad for the ODI series against Sri Lanka:

Rohit Sharma (captain), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul (wicketkeeper), Ishan Kishan (wicketkeeper), Hardik Pandya (vice-captain), Washington Sundar, Yuzvendra Chahal, Kuldeep Yadav, Akshar Patel, Jaspreet Bumrah, Mohd. Shami, Mohd. Siraj, Umran Malik, and Arshdeep Singh.
