Big Blow: Vijay Shankar Out, Mayank In!

Update: 2019-07-01 16:12 GMT
Team India Cricketers who were part of the 15-member squad for ongoing World Cup have been getting injured one after the other. Opener Shikhar Dhawan was ruled out of World Cup after thumb injury. Pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar missed three matches already due to hamstring. And now, All-rounder Vijay Shankar missed remainder of the tourney because of the toe injury.

Mayank Agarwal will be replacing injured Vijay Shankar in the 15-member squad. BCCI made necessary arrangements for the inclusion of the Karnataka Batsman in the squad and ICC offered the clearance for it.

By Monday night, Mayank Agarwal will be reaching England but he mayn't be included in Playing XI for the league match against Bangladesh. Team Management might prefer Wicket-Keeper Batsman Rishabh Pant for No.4 Position.

Mr.Agarwal could play the last league match against Sri Lanka. If that happens, He will be opening India's innings along with Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul would move to 4th Position in the Playing XI.
