BCCI announces new squad for IND vs BAN test series

However, BCCI has also announced test squad for the first test. Earlier, and usual, Rohit Sharma was expected to lead the squad but, since the skipper suffered a severe injury in the thumb during the second ODI, he is now ruled out of the test series. Though, the star batter played in the India's inning and also smashed a valiant knock, but doctors have advised him to go through a proper treatment. Also, India can not afford to lose the skipper when the ODI World Cup is just months away.

In the wake of same, BCCI announced new squad. India's updated squad for Bangladesh Test series:  KL Rahul (c), Shubman Gill, Cheteshwar Pujara (vc), Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant (wk), KS Bharat (wk), Ravichandran Ashwin, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Shardul Thakur, Mohammed Siraj, Umesh Yadav
