Due to a finger injury, India captain Rohit Sharma will not play in the third One-Day International against Bangladesh. According to recent reports, he is also likely to miss the Test series, which begins on December 14. He might be replaced by Abhimanyu Easwaran, the captain of India A, who is currently in Bangladesh for the “A” Test series. This could be a major setback for the team’s efforts to win the remaining Tests necessary to qualify for the World Test Championship final (2 against Bangladesh and 4 against Australia).
Right-handed batter Abhimanyu Easwaran has been waiting for this opportunity. Abhimanyu, who is currently in charge of the India-A team in Bangladesh, has amassed two centuries through his first two innings. He scored 145 in the first innings of the first of the two games that were drawn, while Abhimanyu scored an incredible 157 in the second India-A Test, which is still going on. Abhimanyu Easwaran might be on his way to debut next week if his current form continues.
