1st T20I: Shami Misses Out As India Elect To Bowl First Against England In Series Opener
Nitish Kumar Reddy: Veteran fast-bowler Mohammed Shami missed out on making his international comeback as India won the toss and elected to bowl first against England in the T20I series opener at the Eden Gardens on Wednesday.
Shami was highly expected to play his international comeback game, but the wait has now extended as India opted to have a bowling line-up of Hardik Pandya, Nitish Kumar Reddy, and Arshdeep Singh as fast-bowlers, while Axar Patel, Ravi Bishnoi and Varun Chakaravarthy will handle the spin-bowling department.
"The wicket looks sticky, dew could be a little heavier later on. It's gonna be great competition between both sides. Selection a good headache, sticking to our strengths. The boys have been amazing. The preparations have been good, looking forward to this series. It's going to be great competition between both the sides,” said India captain Suryakumar Yadav.
