Chetan Sakariya and Mukesh Choudhary

Team India is currently engaged in the 3-match ODI series against South Africa; the first match of which the team lost. The Indian team already finished their T20I series and now has no T20 games before the T20 World Cup begins. The team will play two warm-up games before the big clash against Pakistan on 23rd October. The team has already reached Australia and interestingly Chetan Sakariya and Mukesh Choudhary have also joined the troop.

Chetan Sakariya and Mukesh Choudhary join the Indian team

It is really unfortunate for the Indian team that their pace spearhead in white-ball cricket Jasprit Bumrah has been ruled out of the tournament due to the resurfacing of his back injury. Mohammed Shami has been taken in as the replacement for Bumrah. On the other hand, Chetan Sakariya and Mukesh Choudhary have been called into Australia as net bowlers to share the burden of the main bowlers in the squad.

According to the report by PTI, team India will train hard for 3 days in Perth for five long hours from 11 am to 4 pm. Their last day of 3-day practice will be 12 October which will be followed by their second warm-up game the next day. The report also shares that both Chetan Sakriya and Mukesh Choudhary have gone to Australia as net bowlers to help the main bowlers during practice sessions.

“Mukesh and Chetan flew in with the team yesterday. As of now, they will be with the team for the Perth leg where India is supposed to play a couple of practice games,” said a report by PTI. It is to note that left-arm pacer Arshdeep Singh is part of the World Cup squad and he may need rest between games to rejuvenate himself. In that case, the inclusion of Chetan Sakariya and Mukesh Choudhary will come in handy for the team.

For the unversed, team India was eliminated from the Asia Cup 2022 after two back-to-back losses against Pakistan and Sri Lanka. They would like to redeem themselves as they take on their arch-rivals Pakistan in their opening game of the Super 12 stage. The fans are very excited about the marquee event and want the Indian team to bring home the cup this time.
