Tilak Varma Replaces Injured Shivam Dube In India’s Squad For T20Is Against Bangladesh
Shrimant Madhavrao Scindia Cricket Stadium: Left-handed batter Tilak Varma has been named as a replacement for injured all-rounder Shivam Dube in India’s squad for the upcoming three-match T20I series against Bangladesh, said the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).
In a statement, the BCCI said Dube is ruled out of the T20I series owing to a back injury, with the Senior Men’s Selection Committee naming Tilak, who’s earned 16 caps in the format so far, as his replacement. Dube had been a member of the Indian team winning this year’s T20 World Cup in the West Indies.
BCCI added that Hyderabad-based Tilak, who plays for Mumbai Indians in the IPL, will link up with the Indian squad in Gwalior on Sunday morning, ahead of the first T20I to be played at the Shrimant Madhavrao Scindia Cricket Stadium in Gwalior in the evening.
