1st T20I: Mayank Yadav, Nitish Reddy Handed Debuts As India Opt To Bowl Against Bangladesh
Shrimant Madhavrao Scindia Cricket Stadium: Pacer Mayank Yadav and all-rounder Nitish Reddy have been handed debut caps as India skipper Suryakumar Yadav won the toss and opted to bowl first against Bangladesh in the first T20I at Shrimant Madhavrao Scindia Cricket Stadium here on Sunday.
Yadav had an impressive IPL 2024 with Lucknow Super Giants and stood out with his impressive pace before injury curtailed his participation in the season. On the other hand, Reddy scored 303 runs in 11 innings at a strike rate of 142.92 in IPL 2024 for Sunrisers Hyderabad. He also scalped three wickets with his medium pace and won the Emerging Player of the Season award.
"We'll look to bowl first. Looks humid, don't think the wicket will change later on. Always a great feeling coming back home and playing in home conditions. We are really excited for that. There's a lot of talent involved in the group. The energy is great and most importantly, the guys are keen to learn. That's a great thing," Suryakumar said at the toss.
