Jasprit Bumrah and Virat Kohli return for ODI series against England
Pacer Jasprit Bumrah, who last played an ODI in 2023, has returned for the ODI series against England. Virat Kohli also has been named in the side but his participation will be subjected to his fitness.
What came as a shock was the snub of Yashasvi Jaiswal, who slammed a hundred in the last ODI against Afghanistan. Axar Patel also will be making his comeback after getting rested in Afghanistan ODIs. He has replaced Harsh Dubey, who was impressive in last series.
Hardik Pandya continues to miss out due to injury, while Nitish Kumar Reddy retained his place. Bumrah, Prasidh Krishna, Harshit Rana, Arshdeep Singh, Gurnoor Brar are the pacers along with Washington Sundar, Patel and Kuldeep Yadav as spinners.
