Selectors hopeful of premier pacer Jasprit Bumrah recovering in time for ICC tournament; Mohammed Shami makes ODI return
MUMBAI: Jasprit Bumrah was on Saturday named in India's squad for the Champions Trophy in spite of the premier pacer being advised complete rest for the time being. There is hope Bumrah can recover from his back injury in time for the ICC tournament, while another ace fast bowler who has been out for long, Mohammed Shami, has been reintegrated into the national fold. The veteran pacer, who missed the entire Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia due a swollen knee, was also included in the 15-man squad for the ODI event, just days after he was recalled for the T20I series at home against England.
