Dubai: India has included Bhuvneshwar Kumar in their squad for the fifth and final T20I against West Indies, following Arshdeep Singh's injury. Arshdeep was injured in the fourth T20I in Hyderabad after being hit by a short delivery from West Indies fast bowler Shamar Joseph. The left-arm pacer was unable to bat and his shoulder injury has affected his participation in the final T20I.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) will decide his involvement based on his recovery. Bhuvneshwar, who has taken five wickets in the series, could return to international cricket sooner with this addition. He was recently recalled to the T20I squad for the upcoming New Zealand tour after a four-year absence.
