Jasprit Bumrah returns from injury layoff, to lead India in T20I series against Ireland
Team India (Senior Men) squad for T20I series against Ireland: Jasprit Bumrah (C), Ruturaj Gaikwad (VC), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Tilak Varma, Rinku Singh, Sanju Samson (wk), Jitesh Sharma (wk), Shivam Dube, Washington Sundar, Shahbaz Ahmed, Ravi Bishnoi, Prasidh Krishna, Arshdeep Singh, Mukesh Kumar, Avesh Khan. The 27-year-old Prasidh Krishna, who played 11 ODIs, last represented India in an ODI match against Zimbabwe in August 2022.
After that tour, he was picked up for India A's white ball series against New Zealand A in September 2022 but could not appear in that event due to a stress fracture. Shardul Thakur had replaced Prasidh in India A squad for that series.
The stress fracture had also prevented Prasidh from playing for Karnataka in the Ranji Trophy knockout earlier this year. The right-arm quick was expected to make a comeback during the IPL 2023.
But the lumbar stress fracture ruled him out of the event in February itself, as the Rajasthan Royals player later went under the knife. RR had drafted in Sandeep Sharma as his replacement.
