In a big setback for team India, star seamer Jasprit Bumrah has been ruled out of the T20 World Cup squad due to a back injury. The star pacer also missed the Asia Cup 2022 due to his back problem and made a comeback in the last two T20Is against Australia.

According to a report in the Times of India (TOI), BCCI will name senior seamer Mohammed Shami, who hasn't played a single T20I since the last T20 World Cup, as the official replacement for injured Jasprit Bumrah in the T20 World Cup squad. Shami was set to make his T20 comeback for India vs Australia T20 series. However, the pacer tested positive for Coronavirus which delayed his return.
